Cat fixings (Read 986 times)

Albs Omega King Offline The upgrades are ongoing. Posts: 15083 North Essex Gender: Drives: 2000 2.5CD with LPG/Honda cbr600 FX	Re: Cat fixings Reply #15 - 01. May 2011 at 17:34 I have just taken both cats off the breaker. On each one I had one nut which came off ok, and the other one sheared, so will need drilling out to take a nut and bolt.

Well got them on today, passenger side the 2 nuts came off no probs, drivers side not to bad 1 nut no probs but in the past someone has had to do some work which is either replaced the cats before or removed for something else but had snapped the inner stud about half way up the thread so used a bolt to fill in which is what I've done as well as didn't want to temp fate & cause more work drilling it out as I need the car back on the road & when we've not so much on I'll do it properly Thumbs Up!
