INSTALLING UP PIPES

WHEN INSTALLING NEW IH UP PIPES DO YOU REMOVE THE TURBO OR CAN IT BE DONE FROM ALL UNDER THE TRUCK. DOES SOME ONE HAVE A DETAIL STEP BY STEP PROCEDURE?

I'm sure you could do it without removing the turbo, but it would take way more time. At least it would for me.... my big hands don't fit very well in tight spots.

Pulling the turbo doesn't take very long.

I used the link Ron provided, worked like a charm.

Pretty easy job, just time consuming.

How on earth did you do that without removing the turbo?

This is a job i'm tackling in the next couple/few months and I'm not sure if it's possible with the turbo in the way. My turbo doesn't leak either so if it's possible I may go this route as well.
