I'm jammed up, half done with the Diamond Eye downpipe install. I downloaded the DIY by Framer1 on his install on his 05.
I have removed the exhaust, removed the transmission dipstick tube, and removed the downpipe heatshield.
I have unbolted the turbo heatshield to undo the top sleeve clamp of the downpipe, but I cannot get the turbo heatshield out. I have manuevered it every which way and cannot get it out from under the cowl. To make matters worse, my sleeve clamp is fastened with its bolt on the bottom and it is impossible to get to the bolt with the shield in the way. Is there anyone who has done an LBZ downpipe and how did you get the top sleeve clamp off?
Thanks.
