X Pipe Install tips?

[unit213]

I'm installing a UPR ORX pipe tomorrow after work in the garage. I'm sure plenty of you guys have installed a midpipe. I'll turn off the rear O2's with the Predator.

Any tips?

Have a few swivels on hand to get to the manifold bolts, and un hook the sensors first!!

Yep what tom said it's a pretty easy job.

Will do. Anyone know what size wrench for the O2's? I think 20mm is the biggest I have.

I think it's 7/8 th's.

Sir.... I..I..I.. say you are correct!

Use plenty of PB blaster and let it sit on those tought to remove bolts. Oh...and take your time.

Either I suck with a wrech or you guys are on crack. I'm thinking the first option. It took me forever to get the stock xpipe off. The ORX went on much easier since there aren't any cats to get in the way. I'm just about done. I have to torque all the bolts basically and that's it. It sure doesn't help that I'm doing this on jackstands. I only have about 15" clearance.

I should've just paid $75 and had it installed. I could've saved all the cussing for a rainy day. Oh well, it was a good learning experience. I can't wait to fire that baby up! UPR ORX + Bassani CB w/o baffles = L O U D :rockon:

I can feel you on the jack stands!!! I did it on rhino ramps in the garage!!

 

[unit213]

I'm hoping it doesn't leak. We'll see in a few hours.
