Anyone got tips on how to take the 2 bolts after the primary cat off, they seem to have melted or i guess heated weld on the darn flange i started to dremel the bolt side that face the rear of the car but noticed that there melted or heat welded on both sides and i cant fit a dremel on the side that faces the front side (nut).

Anyone got some tips beside taking it to a shop lol.


thanks

If you already started to work at it with the dremmel then I suggest you keep going until it comes off. You have be be a savage with it until it pops right off. If you damage the flange and you can no longer fit a bolt through there then you can always take it to a shop.

it helps if you have leverage....if the bolt is already stripped, get a set of tap sockets, they work like charms!

its not striped its like weld on to the flange lol guess cause its soo old. I just dropped the whole thing im try to decide how to go about serperating the flanges. cause they seem to be melt together to.

was thinking about using a reciprocating saw but don know if that will work.

what if you just heated the flanges up with a torch and wacked it with a hammer?

that sounds like a good idea ill try that when i get home. Maybee use a flat head chizzle to.

thanks
