Tools for up pipes replacement
I'm back to turning wrenches so my tools are at work. Rather than lugging my boxed back home, it'll be easier to just have YOUR recommended tools handy so I can just grab some.....and GO!

List? You want a list? All of 'em, that's how many you'll need, every stinking one and an extra box of curse words because they go fast on that job.
Seriously though, I didn't make a list and would be sure to forget some, the only one in particular that stands out is like 3' or more of 3/8" extension to get the bolts out and into the collector (baby's butt) on the driver's side. You will need to get them from below. Hammer, long drift pin, dremel drill w/cutoff wheels, I used an acetylene torch, all kinds of sockets and deep sockets.

There's a reason that the mechanic gives you stink eye and charges you a gawd-awful price to do your uppipes......It is possibly the crappiest job on these trucks...Bring all you're tools, it still won't be enough...
