Got home today and decided it was time to start on the exshaust manifolds. I got the passenger side almost off. If it's not raining tomorrow I'll get under it and take the drop downs loose and it will be off.
It had 3 of the bolts rusted so bad the heads where gone. Had to use the rounded off sockets to get them off. One rang the head off. I hope after I get the manifold off I can get the stud out.
Both sides have only 2 studs holding the down pipes and it noisey!
