I am in the process of installing the pacesetter LTs, I got the driver side in fairly easy but I am having no luck with the passenger side. I have the starter out and engine jacked up on the passenger side just over an inch and still no joy, in fact the header looks pretty bad from scraping on the frame and underbody. I can get it about half way in and then it just won't go any further. Anyone have any tips, something I am missing? Thanks

 

Are you fitting them from underneith? thats usually better.

 

Idk if im gunna be anyhelp but ill give it a shot. when i put my pacesetter LTs on my '01 4.6L the drivers side was cake, but the passengers side i had to unbolt both sides and jack it up to get it in from underneth. Just an idea, take it how you want it seeing as its a compleatly diffrent truck. But might still work.

 

Yeah thats another thing, unbolting motor mounts usually aids for an easier install.

 

Thanks Guys, I finally got it in, I already had the engine mount bolts on the passenger side out and jacked the engine up and inch or so, removed the starter, after coming here I just took a 20 minute break, had been working on it since noon Eastern time, taking it slow. I went back outside and tried the same way I had been, from the bottom, and after a couple more attempts the darn thing finally slipped up in there. Tomorrow I get all the other junk I took off put back on and take a run to the exhaust shop to weld up the rest of the stuff. I did cross thread a bolt on the passenger side, gotta figure out how I want to approach that after this pain in the butt install... NEVER AGAIN DUDES...NEVER!!!

 

Hey was it worth the power gain our sound?
