I am about ready to swap the exhaust housing from a 16 to a 14 and was wondering if anyone has tips on how to go about it. I am assuming it would be a good idea to shoot all the bolts and nuts with some penetrating oil for a couple days before hand, but it should be a pretty straightforward process correct?

Thanks

 

LOTS of penetrating oil, like Kroil or PB Blaster or such.

Douse it and let it sit overnight and you're fine.

 

I Didn't have any problems taking an HX35 or HT3B housing off, just get all the bolts/clamps loose and tap it with a hammer going in a criss-cross pattern and it will be off in a few minutes. I didn't even use penetrating oil or anything...

 

If it's real tough, put a little heat on it with a torch.
