Does anyone have a link to how to install an X pipe (UPR offroad) on a 99+?

It's very straight forward. Jack up car, unplug O2 sensors, unbolt cat back, unbolt other end, swap.

I don't know squat and we did it in 1.5 hours

Its very easy, however, getting one of the nuts off the right side exhaust manifold is a )(Q@#*&(@*#!!!! Youll need an universal joint and sevral long 3/8 extensions. Once you get that off, your golden!

I just ordered the same Pipe. My question is since you are removing two of the cats do you have to get a plug for the O2 sensor?
