First, are there any tricks, above and beyond the massive array, of sockets, and extensions I will need to get the passenger side bolts off?

Second, I did not get any instructions, could some one please post some, if anyone has them. It looks straight forward, but I would just like to be safe.

Third, this is what really baffles me. The setup came with what best could be described as a small piece of muffler pipe about 4-6 inches long flared at one end. What in the world is this for? The install looks straight forward, but this piece baffles me, I can not see what its need is. It almost looks like a shim for an over flared pipe.

Anyone have any idea?

I would prefer like most people to do this in one shot.

Scott

it's straight forward. what you see is what you get. Make sure you have a 1/2'' drive deepwell socket set to get the passenger side bolts off as well as a 12'' extension and a swivle. It wouldn't hurt to spray some penetrant on the bolt tonight and let it sit over night. You will probably spend the majority of your time rehooking the O2 sensor on the driver side than actually hanging the pipes.

What is the deal with the drivers side O2 sensors?

extremely tight fit. if you have anything more than medium sized hands it's going to be rough. when you get to it you'll know what I mean.

oh and the shim is exactly what you think it's for. I ended up needing two because I was going from a 2.5'' inch pipe to a 3''.

Thanks, I guess I will see when I get in there. I have to wait until the rain stops though.

Thanks,
Scott

The shim goes into the driver side manifold leg. it allows you to install it w/o having to replace the studs. DO NOT FORGET IT.
