Simple version- worked for me.
Start by removing the headers, not fighting with the muffler.If you break a header bolt, you have plenty of time to do the helicoil and s/s stud kit upgrade.
The first time it is probably easier to remove the bumper cover because the whole system attachment is so odd. Kroil is your friend if you give him the days to work. The U tubes are horrid. If you need replacement bolts ,they are metric Carriage bolts available from Bolt Depot and the like.
The weight is a serious issue if you are not ready for it. Be careful. On a rack we use tall jack stands with a foot pedal and 2 people.Drop one of those and it will be a bad day !
