new exhaust

I am going to get the vance & hines 2 into 1 exhaust. Are there any special tools needed ? Are the o/2 sensors hard to remove ?. I have a 08 rocker

Thanks

no special tools...just make sure you wipe of finger prints on chrome before starting it up. dont forget to replace head gaskets.

Easy money. Unplug the sensors and remove with the old pipes & put them on new pipes before installing. Use a very light coat of anti-seeze on sensors treads. Follow the aligning and tightening sequence

They are pretty easy to install. I did mine by myself. They can be a bit awkward to hold up and get bolts started without someone else helping so if you do it yourself you'll want a couple of boxes or something for support. The only "special tools" I needed and didn't have were a wobbly socket end and long extension. Oh, and also a long shafted torx for moving the right side passenger peg.
