Sensors

What sensors are the hardest to get out of stock DPF & CAT pipe. I'am going to be getting my tuner & delete pipe later this week. I would like part numbers if you have them please. Thanx in advance...I may just get some new ones & leave the old ones in stock pipe....

Edit, sorry, go to page one on this link

Getting new ones would def be easier. I guess it just depends on how much they cost.

They really aren't THAT bad. Or at least mine weren't. Ya, it was a little tough, but not like it was impossible by any means. You'll get it!

How many miles do you have on your truck? I pulled my DPF out with around 6,000 miles and had absolutely no problem getting all the sensors out with a pair of vice-grips.

Do yourself a favor and buy a 13mm flare nut wrench. Should have no problem getting the sensors out. If the flare nut wrench don't get it you have bigger problems.
