So, i've had a busy morning today fitting a Trust air filter, Apex Dump Valves and a Grounding Kit :) All went well, and really happy. Bad news is, my exhaust plans have changed... I currently have a twin exit Kakimoto exhaust, which sounds lovely. The right hand back box though has blown it's baffles out, so the plan was to convert it to a single exit system (so i can keep the Kakimoto). After starting it up today and giving it some to test the dump valves, i've noticed the left hand back box baffles are starting to blow out too :( So, long story short, i'm going to be now looking for a new exhaust. Think i'm going for a quad system but what is gene…

Ok, got 3 out of the 4 nuts & bolts off the passenger side. Still have the top studs drivers side to do, which seem to have less access The one stud I'm having problems with is the lower stud, nearest the transmission tunnel.
