Almost there!



Honestly for all the horror stories I've heard, I did not think this was really that bad of a job. I've definitely done ones that were much worse (like trying to take the turbo off my old F250 Turbo IDI- talk about having no way to get a wrench on some of those bolts!). I had more trouble taking the old hardware off and dipstick tube out than I did installing any of this stuff!

Also, maybe it's just the design of the JBA's but I barely needed the flex head ratcheting wrench. Most of the bolts on these were actually pretty easy to get at!

Looks good! Nothing like the look of a full length longtube from underneath!
