waldo - did you paint the inside of the pipe as well ? I think I might try and paint the inside aswell.
A second set of hands does wonders.
To put the front mount on yourself, heres how i did it. sit on front for the bar with legs extended and place cooler on your knees. bend knees to lift cooler up and bolt it in. This was soooooooooo gheettooooo.
Well the cooler is on now on my car. will take pics.
anyone that wants to weld the pipes together yourself * hint * have lots of practice first.
I botch my job up, I used an arc welder $109 from repco * im poor, if i could get a mig i would *. so the rest of the welding was just to join the pipes together to hold and I placed the silicon hose over the top and bold it down.
I will also use the welder to put a lip on the pipes so that its harder to slip off.
pipes all up was $110 from livo exhuast
3#-> 2.5# reducer hose @ $25 each X 2- Shift perfomance
2.5 3inch hose @ @ 20 Each
t-bolt clamps @ $13 each X 12
