Message 13mm crescent(?) wrench, crows foot for the O2 sensors, a can of PB Blaster, and a regular 13mm wrench, along with some patience for the driverside pre-cat is all you need to get those precats off with the tranny in assuming you have relatively skinny arms, no Popeye forearms

The top nuts on the driverside are only going to turn a 1/4 of a turn max at a time and require a small feat in dexterity so have a full repertoire of curse words ready. Once they are off though the downpipes are a cinch to put on. I used locking washers on mine though, the nuts seem to want to back off otherwise on mine.

"The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of "liberalism", they will adopt every principle of our socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without ever knowing how it happened.... I no longer need to run on the Socialist Party ticket because the Democrat Party has now adopted our platform."
--Norman Thomas, 1944 Socialist Party Presidential Candidate

"Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery."
--Winston Churchill
