I cant get the bolts on it to break lose. I need to remove my cat so i can go get a straight pipe made up. The bolts on the exhuast came of easy but not those. Ive used every penetrating oil i could find and nothing loosens them enough for me to break them lose. Sorry just venting a little https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

i got it off now just had to borrow a socket to use on my 1/2 rachet instead of using my 3/8 rachet. Popped right off after that all i got now is 2 more bolts and im done.

get a torch, it makes dealing with exhaust bolts a breeze.

hit it with wd-40 and torch it, let it kewl a bit and immediatley spray more wd-40 on it, let it sit for about an hour and they will come right off, works every time

I dont know after i got the right sized socket to use on my bigger rachet it was easy. No need to use a torch for me. But here it is after i got it off.
