H pipe HELP !!


first off all what is with the jegs h pipe being two pieces and not welded on the H?(prone to leak). second I can not get the f@cking stock one off. i used wd40 still didnt move we used an air gun still didnt move. also i think i stripped one of the bolts when i got frustrated with it. now what any ideas for me to try tomorrow??

on a good note the jlt when in smooth and sounds pretty good also i notice it seems to have better throtle response when you punch it. doesnt feel much faster tho (didnt think it was gonna). last thing the jlt sits right there on the bottom of the car close to the road with no real protection. im scared it might suck some water it looks kinda sketch any thoughts?

try pb blaster. as for the stripped bolt use Twist Sockets--TEC-SPIRAL or hammer on a socket that is a little too small for the nut and try

Being that tight on those striped bolts there is no way your gonna get it off with a twist socket. Your best bet it to cut that mother fucker off with a sawzall
