hipshot Posted March 28, 2011 Share #1 Posted March 28, 2011 Never again will i remove an exhaust collector from a MKII. finally after TWO years of dealing with "life", i got back to my 86vr. lost my "religion", 14 times, before i got the blamed thing off! NOW! if you haven't had your MKII collector off, you might need to do a double check. mine has rusted out/through, about 3/4 of the circumference on ALL 4 exit pipes.only option is to take it to work and fabricate all new connections. one good thing!!!!!! my baffles are all still good! lol just jt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You never know, My 83 & 86 weren't bad to pull off:thumbsup2:, but friesman's 85 was a royal PITA to get off........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcarl Posted March 28, 2011 Share #6 Posted March 28, 2011 Mine just 'fell' off the 85, but Wizard765 was glued on and then some. We made up a pulling contraption, wore out a punch, smashed it with a hammer, heated it until red hot, and finally we had come twopart,,,,, don't know exactly what did it,,,, but now we got to figure it back together somehow.
