the pain was the downpipe bolts, once decided not to come off and get stripped, luckily i have a the bolt out from craftsman. but i didnt have a 1/2 extension. so missing a few sockets and asking neighbors for em and then i had to drill a 1/2" into the downpipe to make the new 1/2" bolts fit. working in a carport, dark, using a flashlight, burning my fingers, cuttin my arms, good times.
