I installed the passenger side test pipe today with zero issues. I went to do the driver side "demon bolt" and snapped my 14mm socket. I pretty much knew it would break. Anyway, I got an impact 14 but now it doesn't seem to fit between the bolt and the steering rod that goes by it. It was getting late so I'm going to finish it later but I'd like to know how other people got an impact socket down there. It was a deep socket 14. I'm thinking I'll have to buy the shallow one for this bolt. Anyone share how they got around that aspect of the cat removal?
