what's the best tool to remove the nuts on the exhaust studs? I sure don't have it.
I run stub pipes which is supposed to make this easier but they are still in the way for my rachet. At the shop we had some kind of universal joint sockets that kind of worked ok. Anything else? thanks, dr Attached image(s)

Gee whiz Guys!First you want the max. possible exhuast,to do that you go with larger diameter tubes,taking up the space the tools use to go.I had to use open end wrench,to install! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol2.gif) Now,I figured that what's the stubby were for.I also really caution on using air tools for removal,suffer the dreaded'broken stud'.I'm a thinking heat & spray WD40 or whatever prefered(Beware of gas or flame!) and gently remove the nuts.Done this a lot on most exhaust nut and bolts removal.Which I think is THE WORST !

Just my 2 cents worth,which is not a lot theses day! |
