Man this gets annoying. Every time I try to do something I either run into their damn "fixes" or in this case their stupidity. Went to take the flex plate inspection cover off and the bolt on the driver side is in backwards rendering it impossible to get out with the exhaust in place. I guess it could have been done at the factory but that just makes me even more mad. I run into this nearly every time I try to do anything. So flipping annoying.
Anyway luckily I'll be taking my exhaust off here in a week and a half anyway. I'll inspect then. Was just hoping for a little notice to get parts together if needed before I started my big project week. Rant over. Sorry.

Haha I hear ya man. I've found soo many "fixes" done on mine too I think that's probably why the PO sold it.
Such shoddy half assed work. My passenger window wouldn't go down for a long time so when I pulled off the door panel to see what was up I found a vice grip in there holding the window up haha. I of course got a junk yard regulator and fixed it properly.
A lot of wiring problems for the other windows and power seats. Just nonsense like that. Like why try to fix something they have no idea about and then just leave it half done, or in worse condition than it was?
Hang in there dude.
