    My mechanic cut the heat shield off and took the exhaust off the truck and inched the old bolts off slowly, New bolts and gasket were less than $15 at the dealer so.... why not.
    Apparently the downstream one was a bitch though cause of all that.
    The upstream one by the engine was easy peasy. came right off.

    Also the upstream one is the most important.

    My truck has never thrown a code or failed any smog for reasons of needing parts replaced, just idiot techs that cant understand my parts are 50 state legal.. LOL

    I try to keep it properly maintained and running smooth. but since its not my daily driver anymore I didn't realize how bad it needed a tune.

    Not sure if you need leaves cause of your lean or not but someone here is selling like 6" lift springs in the for sale section.

    Same here, everything I plan on doing is something I saw someone else do on here. But that's why I am here. If I still checked pirate4x4 everyday it'd be swapped to tons and 40s by now.
