QUOTE(914rat @ Sep 2 2010, 02:40 PM)  I have been removing the exhaust is there an easier way? Nope. I dreaded the first "in car" valve adjust, but if you get her up high enough on some good jackstands, and wiggle around a lot, you will figure it out. I find the way I am laying makes a big dif. A lot of the time, i am laying diagonally under the car, with my head practically under the trailing arm so that I can see things. It takes time, but its nothing to be feared. |
