Started working on removing my cats and installing AAM test pipes this morning. Thankfully I was not cursed by the dreaded demon bolts. Passenger side cat came off with out any problems at all. On the drivers side however there is one bolt, right behind the steering coupler that I just can not get ahold of. I've been using 1/2 inch extensions, swivels, impact sockets and the biggest breaker bar you've ever seen. However, once I get the socket seated on the bolt, I can not get any extensions into it because of the steering coupler. From everything I've read this hasn't been an issue. If you've got any tips or advice to point me towards or how you did it I would greatly appreciate it.
