"you might not have heat at home so I'll use a socket you can get anywhere" said while under a car lift lol
A woman teaching men how to fit an exhaust brilliant . I wanted to know how to tension the spring bolts I had no idea they bottomed out thankyou.
You have solve my problem regarding the spring bolt witch most of the others seems to overlook. Thank you!
WOW! Let me say, this is an awesome video. Sooooooo well done. Clear camera work, good sound, smooth, concise narration, no obnoxious music. Enough material covered to do this job as a DIYer. THANKS! This is an A1 video,,,,or should I say 1A.
+CenterTree777 Thanks for the great feedback!
Great video - thorough explanation of each step, harder to do under the vehicle at home but good trail guide!
Excellent information. You gave me exactly what I was needing to know for my 2007. The secondary is actually a resonator, not a cat. What's interesting is on the cat I do have, there are two O2 sensors located within a foot or two of each other, which I find strange. And cant locate any other o2 sensors on the exhaust anywhere. I guess it's just those two, one for up stream one for down, I would guess. Makes it difficult to test with an infrared thermometer though.
Thanks for showing us this! A tip for removing the back part of the system by yourself: use a ratcheting strap connected to hard points on the back side of the rear suspension to hold the system in place while you disconnect the rubber hangers.
Where did the system you put on come from?
Nice tip. Again where did the replacement system come from because I can not find that kit on 1AA web site for the same vehicle in your video.
Of course none of this works in real life situations where you have rusted nearly welded corroded bolts where no rust penetrant is useful
Use a benzo heat torch, hammer around the area, then use extractors from harbor freight (they grip better than normal hex sockets).
True. This is a great video for instruction. In reality, you will need a gallon or penetrating oil, a grinder, hacksaw, goggles, band aids, for your bloody knuckles, lots of BEER and make sure to keep all young children away so their ears don't burn from all the cursing you WILL be doing. LOL. I had to do this job in my gravel driveway, during the rain, with cor on jack stands... talk about PAINFUL!
Lol just had to grind all my bolts off
And you don't have a lift
When the car is lowered the suspension will bring the bumper up? LOL
The muffler shield has corroded through the two recessed bolts which are terribly rusted onto the mount. All attempts to remove is starting to twist the brackets that are spot welded to the undercarriage. I am afraid that I will break them if I twist any harder. Any suggestions beside heat and penetrant? Sort of worried about using a torch that close to the fuel tank to heat the bolts.
At the 0:36 mark those are obviously newer nuts/washers. Otherwise, great video as usual.
Looks to be a good sturdy system but why those big rear mufflers.
The suspension will certainly not bring the bumper up that exhaust is going to be right up in there forever unfortunatly
Can you use any of the heat shielding from the original catalytic converter to cover the aftermarket one?
The pipe that went on was what's referred to as an "air gap pipe", basically 2 pipes, one inside the other. The outer one acts as a heat shield, so the factory ones aren't necessary.
YOu always do great videos!!
"I'm gonna _untake this bolt out..._ "
🤔 That must be a technical term. 🤷🏼♂️
Do you have a parts list for this job? I have to do the exact same job soon, as I have two pretty major rust holes/leaks.
Do you guys stock the Catalytic convertor gasket?
The reason the muffler doesn't clear is because it's a muffler for the Legacy wagon, not the Outback. The exhaust tip is straight on the Legacy and curved on the Outback, to fit each car's bumper cut-outs. You used the wrong part. Otherwise good video.
+Alex S Thanks for the tip! We'll pass this info along to our production team.
Nice vid. No front conical flange gasket?
I cant seem to find this part for my 09 outback on your site.
+oespo oespo19 Thanks for watching! The only piece of exhaust we carry for that vehicle would be the front pipe with converter. It will only fit on 2.5L non-turbo models. Here is a link: www.1aauto.com/subaru-saab-front-exhaust-pipe-with-catalytic-converter/i/1accd00279?f=655045&y=2009
Does a 2008 Subaru liberty have the same value exhaust system?
Very impressive work.
+Gil Thanks for checking us out. 1aauto.com
Trying to find a video for a 2004 Sub Baja. Is the exhaust the same? Non turbo
does anyone know if the outback’s and liberty’s have the same exhaust system
I have a 2008 subaru legacy i think i need a new cat,cant i just cut out the old one and weld a new one on??
+jingli Green I strongly recommend that you have a reputable mechanic inspect it and see if that is possible. They’ll be able to troubleshoot the problem and tell you what part or parts you’ll need for the repair. Typically, you cannot do this as it comes as a complete unit.
I wouldn't recommend it I'm going through that headache as we speak.
Do you know what size flange bolt it is that connects the muffler to the "y" pipe? I can't find it online anywhere.
14mm order them directly with the dealership
I'm looking for the "mid pipe" on your site and can not find it for my 2008 subaru outback non turbo. Please help, thanks!
+average woodsman Thanks for watching! We only carry the front exhaust pipe, not the mid pipe you are looking for.
@@1AAuto Oh okay I understand, do you happen to have a link or a place where I can buy the one used in the video?
Have a po448 on a 2006 subaru sti a tuf one to fix
Novice mechanic did NOT explain how the "twisty socket" works.
+harold reyes Thanks for the tip! We'll pass this info along to our production team.
It’s easy when u have a lift tools etc lol 😂
this was before they invented the impact gun.
TWISTY SOCKETS ?? 😂
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
All I heard was lubed it up and gonna get dirty!
