Most exhaust installations are DIY. i highly recommend using Liquid Wrench on the majority of the exhaust nuts/bolts since they're mostly likely rusted on.

when you do put em back on, use anti-seize compound.

 

Liquid wrench? This project is starting to intimidate me.

 

+1 on the DIY...and the Anti-seize Compound!

Also, try PB Blaster Penetrating Catalyst
This "stuff" is amazing!!

+1 On the PB Blaster... Waaaaaaaay better than WD40 IMHO... just be careful, it can stain.

 

damn i really cant get all the bolts off on jack stands. i wish i had a lift haha. i got liquid wrench but its not really doing anything. they are all still a pain in the as* to unbolt. any suggestions?

 

its a btch and a half if your still on stock cats/bolts and have never removed them. Really easy if they have been removed a bunch of times,

 

easy but a ***** to get to the bolts on the headers.

 

no matter what i do. i cant get to the top bolt on the drivers side. its really starting to **** me off... it is the last bolt that i have to take out then im done..

 

the steering bar is right infront of the top bolt on the drivers side. I cant get to it with a breaker bar and it wont budge with a wrench or ratchet... how did you guys get it off?

 

wow your getting there, good job. I getting mine installed soon.

 

Yeah. i just have ONE more bolt ONE. haha. the steering shaft is just in the right place to give me no space to use a breaker bar. THIS SHOULD NOT TAKE THIS LONG haha

+1 on the getting it installed. well worth it... i would now, i just cant drive my car cause there is one cat and one test pipe on it

 

yeah that one bolt has taken me 4 hours so far to take off. and it hasnt come off..

 

it is damn near impossible to get the bolts off from the cats to the headers if they have never been removed, it's like they have locktight in theer or something. For all the pain it takes to install these, it's well worth paying signal the $40 to have it done the first time, that way you wont have to deal with the bolts and trying to loosen them the first time.

 

yep. last resort. i shall burn it off with a torch.

 

just got mine installed today and man they are raspy! I was so scared driving home, thinking I was gonna get rolled. Now I kinda think it was such a great investment. Its so loud even with my silencers on, and in the car..... can't even hear myself think. Might have to put my stock exhaust back on and see if that helps.
