RE: Rinehart TD Install
I will look this afternoon when I get home but the other day when I initially put them on there is no room at the header pipe.
You cannot get a socket of any type over the nut due to the bend in the pipe. That is why I was going to cut an open ended wrench.
A normal length wrench doesn't leave any room to turn.

RE: Rinehart TD Install
I had the same issue as Astro last week when I put myRinehart True Dualson, the rear pipe is in the way, it hasnothing to do with the O2 sensor, its just the way its bent. I had some luck with a stubby but use a crowfoot for final tightening. Its kind of a crappy design I think.

RE: Rinehart TD Install
I tried to use the crow foot, but was near impossible on the rear Rhinheart header. I ended up buying a set of Craftsmen shorty combination wrenches. Still had to grind down the box end of the 1/2 inch. I now keep it in my tool kit case I get one loosening on the road.
