    Success!!!!
    I tried 2 straights first because when I was sizing it up it looked like it would work, but it ended up kinking so I had to do it this way.

    Well pretty bad update: I cannot for the life of me get the passenger axel all the way in. I banged and pryed for at least an hour and I don't think it moved a mm. One of the nuts for my bolting the strut in is stripped. I need to lower subframe a little to fit te downpipe in but I don't want to do that till I get the passenger axel in. At this point tonight I am so ******* frustrated with the car I had to stop. The dn oil drain took up basically my entire day. O and I definitely tore the cv boot or whatever it's called because there is grease all over the end of the pry bar. Not sure if this is a really bad thing or not

    You talking the axle onto the intermediate shaft or the intermediate shaft into the tranny?

    And if the boot is torn you'll be slingin axle grease all over and the cv will quickly go to crap bro.

    Axel into immediate shaft. That is already in the trans nicely. And ya that makes sense I goes I'll have to replace that. Not really sure how to do that.

    Alright got a good bit done this afternoon. At this point everything is finished except mounting downpipe, tightening down wastegate and dump tube, and replacing axle when I get the new one, hopefully Thursday.

    Today I hope to get downpipe in and the passenger axle out. I hope the axle nut will come free. I do not have an impact gun.
