I know that it says it is a Angel threaded feedneck. What does that mean? I obviously need to get a feedneck, just don't know what. Thanks.

It means when you go buy a feedneck, make sure the seller says it's angel threaded. "Angel threaded" means it has the same threads as an angel.

Does the feedneck screw out of the body then? I fond the angel feednecks, just a matter of attaching it to the ULE body.

Sometimes it is a large PITA to get them out ( the stock one )

This is true... The dozen or so that I have removed have had red Loc-Tight use when they where installed. I use a small "Craftsman" strap wrench to remove the stock feed neck without marring the anodizing. Some hot tap water can also help loosen the Loc-Tight.

Yep, I would put the body in a padded vice (but don't tighten it down too much!) and a strap wrench, that should take it off.

Thanks for all of the advice guys. It came right off with wrench (wrapped the feed in a towel). There was no loc tite on it. Found the feedneck I am going to order.

Once you get the new feedneck, you might want to loctite it in place. Always make sure to twist your hopper on and off in a clockwise motion, so you don't unscrew the feedneck when you remove your hopper.
