I installed it myself, it was pretty easy to do just took a bit of time to make sure everything was just right!

nice to know. Did you cut the exhaust or did you pull it out in one piece, What did you use to help get the exhaust of the hangers. Someone told me vasaline worked pretty good.

If you dont have acces to one of those hanger tools just throw you some grease or vaseline on the end of the hanger and a pair of big slip joint pliers. One side on the tip of the hanger and the other on the rubber and it'll slide it over the hanger enough you can slide it by hand. A torch can help loosen up stuck exhaust pipes sometimes by heating the outside pipe and letting it expand a bit. Just be care not to burn yourself or use it around any fuel lines obviously lol

thanks for the advice, i can wait to hear it.

Yeah I bet... I looked it up on youtube and holy cow! But cant justify the money for one I'll settle for my spintech setup which in the end will only cost me roughly 180 with tip and new pipe installed

Yeah the hangers were no big deal for my install, can always put a little grease like mentioned earlier to get them off!! The problem I had was undoing the flanges in the front of the exhaust, they were sooooo rusted on that I had to break them both off and get replacements from the dealership! Take a look under your truck and check out what I am talking about, might wanna buy replacements in case you run into the same problem, they were cheap!

Thanks Ill have to do that, I would be mad as hell to have to wait 2 weeks for delivery just to break some bolts off and have to wait another day. It was expensive but i have pretty much stopped doing anything fun lol to save up for this. besides the videos of it make it sound so good.
