They are not hard to do, actually the hardest thing is disassembling the stock exhaust... hahah.

If you need help drop a line!

Like was said before the manifolds are the hard part. Most of those bolts are rusted and a pain in the *** to get loose. Just get your self some basic tools with extentions and get a jack and jack stands and you should be able to do it yourself. Good luck

Get some WD-40 for the exhaust manifolds and it's easy.

well depending on how long its been since the bolts came off on the Y pipe, they are bound to snap off from rust and heat cycles.

just like the head bolts/studs. the heat cycles "glue" them to the threads.

get some PB blaster, seafoam deep creep aerosol spray, and it thoes dont work try penetrating oil concentrate.
