Fireman31 Posted March 14, 2013 Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 If you are having trouble finding the right gaskets from the area parts suppliers, just get them straight from your dealers parts counter.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chawkins6789 Posted March 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 Are they the same gaskets for the LR4 4.8L and the LQ9 6.0? If they ask for my VIN it will come up as a 4.8 Sent from my DROID RAZR MAXX using Xparent Red Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MID12sSSS Posted March 14, 2013 Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 I know the studs are M10x1.50. I plan on using an impact as plan b if I run into a stuck one I wouldnt recommend using an impact as a plan b. Get them sprayed, heated, and zip them off fast with a good impact gun. If you sit there and turn them with a ratchet, chances of them getting stuck are more likely. Haha they're just 6 studs. Dont overcomplicate it. You got this.

chawkins6789 Posted March 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 By good impact do you mean this? Love this thing. Sent from my DROID RAZR MAXX using Xparent Red Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MID12sSSS Posted March 14, 2013 Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 Yep. Got the same one. Mines not in as good of shape though. Ive used the piss out of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chawkins6789 Posted March 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 (edited) Does yours have the SPARKLEZ? Mine got 2 months of hard use when I was a truck mechanic. It worked better than our 1" impact at taking off the semi's wheels. But I hurt my back and had to quit Sent from my DROID RAZR MAXX using Xparent Red Tapatalk 2 Edited March 14, 2013 by chawkins6789 (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chawkins6789 Posted March 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2013 So I got a MAP torch, gaskets, o2 sensor socket, impact swivel and metric impact sockets, and new grade 10.8 nuts. I think I'm good. I'm going to attempt it tomorrow Sent from my DROID RAZR MAXX using Xparent Red Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chawkins6789 Posted March 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2013 Already done the job. Didn't need the torch. No anti-sieze was used Sent from my DROID RAZR MAXX using Xparent Red Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chawkins6789 Posted March 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2013 (edited) Also there was a donut on the right side, the new cats didn't allow for a donut, just a metal ring on each side. The truck runs better but so far I'm disappointed with the corsa sport. It doesn't get loud until 3500 rpm. But I have to thank Mid12sSSS for the parts and being willing to ship from Alaska to California. I love how it runs now.

MID12sSSS Posted March 15, 2013 Report Share Posted March 15, 2013 You're very welcome. I figured you'd put them to better use. They were just sitting in my shop taking up space, and being in alaska, im not worried about emissions and wasnt planning on ever using them. Glad to hear the install went smoothly. If you ever plan on changing up the muffler to a magnaflow or something for a louder exhaust, i want to be the first to know. haha. my corsa sport muffler just started rattling and its driving me nuts. sounds like metal pieces vibrating on the bottom sheet of the muffler. So ill buy yours from you if you decide to change it up a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chawkins6789 Posted March 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2013 As much as it was, I'm going to run it for a while and see if I get used to it. But if I do get rid of it, I'll let you know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
