My drivers side up pipe blew out.

Under a hard pull I could hear a slight exhaust leak, I figured it was a manifold. Got to the top of a hill, laid into the GO pedal and it went "tick tick tick BANG BANG BANG BANG!" Sounded like I put a rod through the oil pan.

What a PITA to take out.

Be a good time to do the bellowed up pipes. Lol ($$$$)
On mine, I can remove the passenger up pipe, but gave up on the DS.

i found lifting the cab a little make the job a whole lot more tolerable. but then again, I don't live in the land of rust where cab bolts are a pandora's box onto itself.

After I got the turbo off I unbolted the passenger side also to give me some more wiggle. Still couldn't get it out so I lifted on the cab a little without loosening the mounts. Gave me that extra 1/4" I needed to drop it.

As for the bellowed pipes... I have a full e99 set up I could have put on but it's still on the parts truck and I needed the truck for the next day. Maybe next time.
