Tymar DP install woes

spent a while last night trying to get the old out and the new in. finally got the old out, but that body seams is in the way on my '95. i don't have the money for a porta-power, tried scisor jacks (all were too big) and all the pipes i stick in there are bending. gonna try a crow-bar this evenin when i get home. any other ideas?? have to drive a gasser to work today....

I used a 2x4. Seemed to work for me. Make sure you cut the seam on each side of where you want to fold the seam.

2X4 for me, too. As suggested by ltfox, cut the seam on both ends of where you want to bend it. Much easier that way.
