Tomorrow morning i am going to take off the cat, after i unbolt it and take off the clamp does it just slide off or do i need some special tool? and should i take the o2 sensor from the old cat into the new pipe? and one more thing would i still be able to use the old clamps that was on my old cat? help me out guys, thanks

I was able to get the bolts off fairly easy... just took a lil extra cursing and banging but I made it out alrite

Like camaroKID said... replace the sensor while you're at it. Be sure to either squint like hell while you're under there or wear goggles. I don't think your eyeballs are very good friends with rust flakes

 

use some good anti-seize lube, and u won't have a problem gettin em out next time
