get something to cut the stock exhaust into smaller pieces it will make getting it out a lot easier took me longer to get the stock cat back section off then to get my banks put on

Basic wrenches/ratchets for bolts and clamps, spray type lube for the rubber hangers, the clamp on the bottom of the down pipe is a pain in the ass! I loosened the hanger that bolts to the tranny to remove the front pipe and cat. Some people were removing the tranny's cross member or cutting the pipe to remove it. Keep it loose to set it where you want it before tightening it down. I lost one of my nuts to a flange after running my truck playing. I noticed because I heard the rattle of the loose bolt. Re-tighten after playing! Its not very hard! You will like it! Congrats!

Spray down the hangers really well to help them slide out and go crazy with a sawzall!:D

Give me a holler if you have any questions.

If you don't need the old system at all then cut it out and save the time. Other than that, have fun.
