My up-pipe goes in from the bottom, so the turbo can stay relatively in position and drop the Up-pipe out the bottom.

Have a local exhaust shop build a up pipe?
That would get rid of the slip fit entirely.

that would be expensive and they would have to take the turbo off my truck and that is not going to happen.

i don't see how you could get to on of the nuts on the flange that holds the up-pipe to the turbo.

Short wrench. My up-pipe is rusted permanently to at the joint with the piece that connects to the manifold, so it will not go in from the top. It wiggles in from the bottom and then you put the turbo down on top of it. Its actually pretty easy.

are you talking about the y collector or the pipe that bolts to the turbo?

I think he's talking about the pipe that bolts to the turbo. I had to take my turbo off the other day and the freaking joint woundn't split to save my life. I ended up unbolting the turbo, and pulled the uppipe and y out the bottom.

I'm talking both pieces (the Y-pipe and the Up-pipe that the turbo bolts to) going in as one unit from the bottom. Mine are so rusted together there is no way to get them apart.

actually, i use FB now to get all my pics on the net. pics upload really fast to fb, vids aren't bad. once i get the pics on fb, i then go over to photo bucket and upload my fb album of choice to photo bucket and then i can post the pics on here.
just so you know the internet will time out before i would get old and moldy.

how hard was it to get to all of the up pipe nuts at the turbo?
