Baddog Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 So I was trying to jack up my transmission the other day using the front diff but I noticed I need to remove the headers. I got them unbolted from the heads but then I started to try and remove them at the collector/cat flange and one of the bolts broke. So now I have an exhaust leak. My question is how do I get to that top bolt? Doesn't seem like there is much room if any at all to get to it. Once I get it out of there I am going to replace the gasket and get new bolts.

babybaluga32 Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 I dont know if im thinking of the right bolt, but if I am I usually take my exhaust off. but you can do it with a long socket and a 'wrench' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
