Get a medium dish socket. The deep socket hits the fenderwell and will not turn the nut. The shallow will not fit over the bolt.

Surprised this isn't mentioned more often

Don't think i could've done the job without a mid-length socket

DREMEL TOOL FTW! It may take 10 minutes to cut through a bolt - but it will! And it's ultra compact.

PB Blaster....for all your lubricating needs.....almost......

PB Blaster is the chit! It's all I ever use.

WD-what?

Oh, and one tip you can use with PB is after you spray it, tap on the nut/bolt and the vibration will help the PB work itself in the threads.

im saying, that look like some one is replace that bolt with different size, cause it seem to dont fix any socket I put on. I post a pix later on.

***********SEE POST 17!!!!!!!!!!!****************

The reason it seems that way is the socket you are using...do you have a Sears near you?

Very weak attempt at an insult. Ignore him

i think he means his sig lol.
Man just forget it, it aint worth dremel and all this over.
Take it to a shop, they have power tools. Have em' buzz it off, then tighten it up a lttle bit, drve it home and do the rest yourself.
You'll be fine with out o2 sensors for 10 miles or so. I dove days with an exhaust leak the size of my fist at the header for a period.. ran lean as heck, it scared me but the ECM shoul d run on preset settings.

It seems to me that English isn't his first language. At least he's trying to use our language. Who the **** are you to make fun of his English? I think you should try working somewhere that you have to put up with immigrants coming in speaking their native language to you and getting pissed off and raising hell at you because you don't know what they need.

I for one appreciate the guy trying use our language, even if he does make mistakes. More people should be like him.

BannonJr · Jul 25, 2008

It looks a bit round ya, but it should come off....I think I used a swivel, and 2 extensions....
If you have a shop close to ya, it would be a bad idea to just take it in like Jbauer said...
Have you tried the standard size also on that? Could be that the metric 18 just doesnt fit right..

And if youre not using the stock pipe after, you can always just cut that to give you more clearance...

and try not to hit it with your purse, last time I broke open my nail polish and it spilled all over ...maybe some other folks around here have exp. in that , I dont recommend it

Thanks you .

I properly take it to the shop ( they charger me $40 buck ). Thanks all for the help, I will post up some pix when it get install.

I have a question, what is best hand cleaner, and best soup to remove oil from cloth, one time I was cover with grease, and I throw all the cloth on the washer, and after done, the washer machine is cover with black grease, my mom ban me from using it now. . just wonder what best washer chemical to use to remove grease and oils from cloth. ( kinda girly question, but Im doing my own laungry ).

forum155pl · Jul 26, 2008

just get yourself some coveralls and some throw away rags man.. thats the way i do it.. the wife almost killed me a few times working in the regular clothes... WWWWHHHIIIPPPED!!! damn

forum155pl · Jul 26, 2008

the funny thing is if i remember right i think that i could do it without a swivel, i had to really jam it on there but it worked, that was pre motor mounts.. when using a swivel your taking about half of your bacon out of the actual bolt turning process

pumm3l · Jul 27, 2008

Are you using a wrench on the top of the bolt while you try to spin that nut off? If you can try to get someone down there with you, one to start turning the wrench and the other to use the ratchet on the nut, that's how I usually break it (although I've gotten pretty good at it and can turn both at the same time by myself with my hands wedged up there). Would be wise to replace those rusty bolts/nuts to when you do get it off.

I cant find the bolt that fix that rusty bolt perfectly. I think im about to strip the bolt, im going to let the shop do it. where I can get those bolt ? ace hard ware ? dealer ?

pumm3l · Jul 28, 2008

Contact ford for a direct replacement, I'm sure you could find something at a hardware store but it may not be exact and could be more trouble than its worth, the bolts and nuts can't be too expensive direct from ford.

Killa · Jul 28, 2008

UPS CAME TODAY !!! , I dint expect it came today, it support to came wed, any way I take it to the shop, AND GUY ................IM GLAD I TAKE IT TO THE SHOP, cause it require weld 2 peice together. and they balance and install it right, cost 40 buck, they have right tool and they got that SOB off in 30 min. car sound really good now, but when I get on it, it had that loud raspy sound, i mean it really loud !, is that normal ?

BannonJr · Jul 29, 2008

mmm..depends on what you mean by raspy...if youre not sure, you can take it back to the shop, be polite, and ask them if they could check for leaks..or ask a buddy who has exhaust mods to check..
It might be normal, maybe that your just not used to the sound...

it sound like it can scare people away . I ask my friend in the back of me, how my exhault sound like, he say very smooth, and he saw very very little smoke coming out the tail pipe when I launch it, that normal ?

I give up, I cant get that stock H pipe off.
