You've GOTTA take it to a dealer, they are the only people with the right tools to do it. But, if you do decide to do it on your own, you've gotta help us out by writing up an in-depth tech article, with 5 pictures of every step Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest stevil Posted July 25, 2003 Report Share Posted July 25, 2003 I replaced my muffler bearings last year. Used a mexican speed wrench and a pair of tweezers. PITA, but luckily I did it myself and didn't get raped by the dealer. smile.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
