Hey guys... First time poster, but have been reading DTR for quite a while now.

Ordered a ss MBRP cat delete pipe on Friday from pure diesel power and it's out for delivery this morning!

Anyhow, about a year ago I ordered Geno's muffler delete thinking I could pop it off myself and was sadly mistaken. The clamps had left too deep of indentations and I ended up having to take it into the local muffler shop (with my head held low) where they cut it out for me. I was pleased with the work they did and planned to take it back for the cat delete, but they told me they wouldn't do it - for obvious reasons.

So I was wondering if anyone was local to the Sachse, Garland, Wylie areas that might be interested in helping out in return for some cold ones and/or cold-hard greenbacks. I've read a couple threads on here where guys have said the cat popped off much easier than the muffler. Just thinking it might help to have an extra set of muscles and/or brains to keep me from doing something stupid... also, I would really like to get it off without chopping anything in the event that I ever have to put it back on.

Thoughts/comments/suggestions?

Oh yeah - it's an 06 2500 megacab 2wd.

And thanks a TON in advance for any advice/help - this is an awesome forum from what I've seen so far.

Think I may have - moved it to 3rd gen engine and drivetrain. Rookie mistake.
