downpipe 0 robb 4
not sure if i should post this... but i am extremely happy about this... i removed all four nuts off the studs for the stock downpipe ^__^, heck i even got a stud off at the same time
PB blaster is your friend with double wrenches ^___^;
like previous post, PB blast the nuts the night before, i'm pretty sure it helped greatly. I got the bottom two nuts with double wrench trick, got the one hidden behid the y-pipe off... but the last one always gets u, lucky it was the one near the o2 sensor. Ended up rounding the nut, -_-; went to the hardware store for some help, suggested a nut spilter, got home as fast as i could, was amazed how it dug itself into the nut..... then i noticed it was going to eat the threads as well.. shiet!......... too late.... it did.... but i realized if i used the nut spiltter to bite into the nut i could turn it, ever so slowly FOR 2 hrs, and oddly enough the stud came out instead ^___^ here's the a blurrly pic of the nut and stud
woooooo seeing that sucker come off was almost better then sex!
