Yes, it’s wicked easy. Turn your steering wheel and point the tire away from whichever corner you’re working on. Helps with clearance and getting your hand in there.
Best of luck and heal quickly! Coincidentally, today is the one year anniversary of my last car wreck. Guy pulled out in front of my 4Runner and I had a fraction of a second to stand on the brake. $5,500 damage to mIne, totaled his Jeep. People freaking suck.
