Damn,,,, I can tell im gonna have trouble, cuz i aint no queer!

I dunno I just thought those were a PITA. I can't get my hands in that area (better in others ) LOL.

Get a pal to assist/help/laugh at your failure/drive to the hospital when you are doing all of this. Two sets of eyes are better than one.

Dropping the Y-pipe is a damn good idea but a PITA too. Just face the music those servos are a bitch...well the billets are as the 'Vette one comes apart.

LOL ... let me know when and I'll see if I can make it.

I don't know if I would know how to act working with it on a genuine lift and not getting to roll around on a concrete floor.. I might get spoiled.

they are deisel mechanics... not car mechanics... they dont have a lift... it would take quite a rig to lift a deisel truck! but they do have all the tools you can think of, and plenty of jacks to get that thing off the ground.

Oh OK then .. I'm game. I just didn't want to subject myself to such nice working conditions and get spoiled.

If you can shut the doors though .. then that would be a good step up, especially as cold as it's been lately.
