Looking for anyone willing to help me get my new strup header on. Im having issues with getting the o2 sensor on the header off, its becoming stipped. And im having trouble getting 2 bolts of the bottom of the header. Nothings going as easy as the guides ive read say. Down to my last option. So if anyones got experience with this sorta thing please hit me up on pm or call 940 230 6314. Thanks

 

man , i would have helped you out @ my house , i have a socket for the o2 sensor and major tools , i would take it your down now ??

 

I have a good amount of tools to although im using a 7/8 open wrench for the o2 instead of the recommended 15/16 ( it doesnt fit right for some reason). And yes im down till this is fixed. I can get you for gas if it matters.

 

Finally managed to get all off, a friend came over with an air compressor and an impact gun to get the two bottom 9/16 bolts off. The air sensor on the header is stripped to all hell. It had to much build up on it so id recommened doing this before you put to many miles on your car (currently at 32k). The sensor is gonna run me about $220

 

Unless you know someone who could get it cheaper.

 

Hint, hint.

you do realize that toyota uses metric fasteners.
that 9/16 is probably a 14mm. carefull useing sae tools on a metric engine. you will end up with a lot of ugly stripped out bolts.
