After like an hour of me being psyched etc to get my new greddy catback on one of the bolts is stripped and frozen. Anyways went to every shop in town and seeing as its a sunday no ones there so have to wait till tomorrow to finish...just mad that I cant get the damn thing on!! anyways will post pics etc when its done...after that I will install other parts in my basement and trunk Ive been meaning to put on...hint hint agx's and injen

 

Sounds like somebody needs a cutting wheel or a dremel, hehe..

 

shut it...

 

 

may the force be with you

 

 

Taking it to meineke to have them cut or grind off the frozen bolt..if anything I will just have them fit the whole thing on caus ehave school all week and kind of anxious to get it on...

 

Did u ever finish your graphics maximaracer28?

 

dont complain, mine's worse....


i was trying to fix a gasket behind my cat and the right bolt snapped in a half. There's jack **** u can do about that the way it's between the flange =( So I drove around all weekend sounding like I put mothballs and other random objects in my fuel tank. I scared off lots of hot chicks 2.... dammit.



Man as soon as i get my hands on a torch... its over

i hate rusty bolts.

 

Remember the basic propane torch is your friend. Muscle and those liquid crap do not work. Not even a 300lb/ft impact wrench did the job. However, just a litte heat to warm up those *&%#%@ rusty nuts. Game over.

 

you ain't kidding.... the guy torched it for like 45 seconds.... grapped a vise grip, and that baby slid out like butter =) Now to go find out how much one is....

 

BZZZZZT! Wrong answer (partially). PB Blaster works magic on all the
bolts I've used it on. I couldn't get them to budge, even with the
impact wrench. I sprayed the bolts, let it sit overnight (about 6
hours actually), came out the next morning and the bolts all came
right out. Kroil is supposed to be just as good, if not better, but
I don't have personal experience with it.

You're crazy to try this job without one of the two above lubricants.
WD-40 is NOT the same thing and falls into the "liquid crap" category
when you're talking about loosening rusty/frozen bolts.

Ahhhh feels good to have the catback on...the greddy sounds purdy will post pics later
