a peice of rebar and a hammer works well.. just unbolt the exhaust drop it down and beat out the precats.. then vacume out the particles.. u can get a core charge from a scrap yard for the catlyst material in them

I changed both rear u-joints this afternoon hoping that it would solve my take off vibration.Unfortunately it didn't help LOL...I figured it wouldn't but atleast i have grease fittings now.Paid about $23 for both.It sucked i couldn't find some of my tools and my POS vise didn't do too hot so i did it the old fashioned way ufortunately

Did you clean the spline w/brakefluid and then put a thin coat of teflon grease on it ? That's important..
