I was able to pull one up pipe out with the turbos when I rounded off a bolt head. I also have custom up pipes and had another person helping

I don't know which bolt you cant get off but when I did my 1st cab on pulling the turbos I rounded one out as well. I managed to get a torch in there it was a tight fit and I had to watch out for things but I just went in and torched the head off the bolt. pulled turbos and then heated the flange and pulled the remainder out with vice grips a lot better than snapping it off in the flange and having to drill.

yes it was the pass side pipe just remember to take your egt sensor out first

That extractor is pretty worn out.

That was my second extractor. I'm just cutting the pipe. As I have a new set.

This is the socket that you would have needed https://store.snapon.com/Ford-Diese...sel-Turbo-Ford-3-8-Drive-6-Point-P649844.aspx
But since they are stripped now, one of those extractors and some heat from an acetylene torch or similar.

Thanks for helping. I cut the pipe. This was the bolt head
