I was just doing that this afternoon. Removed those tabs you noticed in my bed and ground off the exhaust hanger rivet. Still need to take a couple pieces off the frame. Are you using flap disc's? Scott and I were talking about them a couple days ago.

Thanks for tuning in :metal:
I've used the torch and heat up the sleeve good and hot. Then the rubber will come out easy, just push it out by hand. BUT this way makes a big stinky mess......burning and melting rubber. :eek:

:cool:
Yes, I love the flap discs, I was using an 80 grit one.
I did use a regular grinding disc on a hard to get to weld on the inside of the frame. I have found if you grind with an 80 grit then go back with a 120 or even a worn disc, you can polish and smooth the metal of all the grind marks....
