Sure, it will snap the bolts off or spin the nutserts out really
well....

I just see too many of the old ones up here in the rust belt and they
are very hard to get apart and hard to fix when things snap and spin
out.

Hopefully you won't have those issues.

Two things:

1. Buy stock in PB Blaster if you live in the rust belt.

2. Don't forget that the skid plate holds the trans and tansfer case up..

"the skid plate holds the trans and transfer case up"...and is bolted the
transmission mount. I would recommend doing the exhaust work without
dropping the belly pan like Mike said. Meineke (and every other shop in my
town) wouldn't drop it.
