I want to work on my exhaust I took out the four rear suspension bolts and cannot get the tunnel to separate from the suspension. I had a 4x4 on track and tried prying it apart carefully with no success. Any tips or pointers as to what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks in advance

Don't forget to disconnect the remote adjuster cable...I made that mistake last year.
Should I leave drop bracket bolts in and just take out W arm bolts
If you have a mono its pretty straight forward. Remove the RA which is held in with three bolts and then remove one end off the cable. The end at the shock I find the easiest to remove.
With the back of the sled supported remove the two bolts on the front arm located in the footwells. Then remove the two bolts for the rear arm located under the running boards about half way down.
The skid will collaspe and fall out of the tunnel. If you happen to have an Attak remove the two rear bolts holding the rear upper idler wheels.
When re-installing the skid remove one of the transfer rods bolts.
Install the front bolts and then the rear. Once all four bolts are in lift the back of the sled until the transfer rod bolt lines up.
Its that simple
