I don't know about shorter spark plugs. I made a spark plug socket. It's a nut welded to a socket I cut to length and drilled to fit over the porcelain. I use it with a ratcheting box end wrench.

An offset box end wrench works but you have to be careful that you don't round off the plug. I think Dennis uses a pipe wrench.

Good memory Charlie. I use an 8" pipe wrench over the outside of my socket. It's a shorter socket 1/2" drive so the plug sticks through the socket.
