I'm going to focus on the brake calipers now. Who knows. Thanks for that jbrew.

Downloading a couple of exhaust vids to share, prior to the muffler addition experiment.
That is so aggravating Will, hope you find it soon

Just finger tight, then 1/4 turn after that with a 1/4" ratchet.

You either use a torque wrench when you put them back on or an impact with Tork Styx but never an impact with torque settings.....air pressure differences can skew these settings.....

Yeah. It's hard to do when you have little room under there too. When I put my new exhaust on, it was a pain trying to weld it with the hood on.

The pipe was off the truck, but that still doesn't make it any easier.
