Just did the hawg-zawst today and I love it. It's not quite as loud as I thought it would be (3 washers each bolt). I am not mechanic savvy at all but this seemed easy enough. I was not expecting the bolts to be that tight. Felt like they were practically welded on. I about gave up when I finally got one loose.
Anyhow 20 mins turned into about an hour and a half. I made sure to oil the nuts and bolts if I need to get to them again in the future.
I have a question though. I didn't remove the gasket cuz it was stuck on there pretty good and only coming off in small pieces. Is this going to be an issue? Is there good reason that I should get it off?
