jeffro Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 is there a trick to getting the bottom passanger side exhaust stud out? some jackass a while back crossthreaded it a while back with an air ratchet. even after removing the starter there still isnt enough room to get a pair of plyers/vise grips on there. also, anyone know if those studs are reverse threaded? this is all thats left before im ready to hit the streets with my new tko.

BradyPPC Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 They should be standard thread. You may need a stud removal socket. Basically you would hammer it onto the stud and then it as you twist it to remove the stud it digs into it and should be able to get enough grip to remove it.

Guest Hal Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 There's room Jeff, it's just a little tight. That's the only way I've been able to get them off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With a lift it is easy, the k-member is off in 20 minutes, pop the headers off, temorarily put the kmember back on, do the clutch, and repeat.

Fuck jacking the motor up. All I do is cut a little hole in the exhaust and tell the customer I installed their headers. Wait - that doesn't seem honest...
