do you have to remove the uppipes

 

[DuramaxSMOKE11]

ummm you deff need to take the down pipe out of the truck. i am not sure cause i had my up-pipes out when i did my head gaskets. i can look at my truck quick and see if you ccan get to them with the pipes in place

1 remove downpipe
2 loosen up pipes, on manifold and on bottom of turbo
3. 2 12mm nuts holding the drain line to the block. must remove driver up pipe prior to gettting drainline off
remove feed line from center of turbo on top.
3 17mm bolts holding the turbo down to the block, their on their tight, grab a buddy,

all the boost clamps etc mouthpiece

do you have to remove the uppipes

It makes it much easier if you get them out of the way, I've done it both ways but removing them is much easier and keeps you safe from bending it accidentally.

thanks for the help guys:drink i got it done now, much smoother with the uppipes off for sure.
