desrtrat Posted June 30, 2010 Report Share Posted June 30, 2010 i was just looking for the best way to make sure the bolts come out ez lots of PB blaster on all the bolts. let set and spray some more. most people will spray every thing down the day before. also use anti-seize compound when re installing all your bolts.. good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jc06VMAX Posted July 1, 2010 Report Share Posted July 1, 2010 (edited) lots of PB blaster on all the bolts. let set and spray some more. most people will spray every thing down the day before. also use anti-seize compound when re installing all your bolts.. good luck that's what i did and i had zero problems. make sure to get a vid up after your install.

tonycillo Posted July 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2010 also when installing them is it easyer to come in from the top or the bottom? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cramer Posted July 1, 2010 Report Share Posted July 1, 2010 It is alot easier to do them from the bottom. Also it is a good idea to take the front wheels off, and take the inner fenderwells out. There are some clips that hold them to the fenders etc and some clips that hold wires to the inner fender but very easy to take off. If you take the inner fenders out you can access the spark plugs and all the exhaust bolts from the outside with some extensions and a swivel. Spray the heck out of the bolts, and get it warn. then respray the bolts again. I hope you have more luck than I did though. I broke 3 bolts off in the head. Rear bolt on both sides, and front drivers bolt. I had to drill and use an easy out on the front bolt, but had to weld a nut to the rear two to get them out. Also if you don't plan on using the old cats or manifolds just cut the cats off and remove the manifolds so you don't have to mess with breaking the bolts that connect the cats to the manifolds.
