Question Stock exhaust
Does anyone know how to remove or install the stock exhaust in one piece? I'm thinking of going back to the stock muffler. I've had it in my garage for 8 years, but it's all in one piece (i-pipe and tips etc.) and wonder if you have to have a lift for the funny angle over the rear axle. I prefer not to cut it up and re-weld. Thanks. Thinking jack stands may not get it high enough.

If you take off the spring and shock and endlink on the passenger side, just using jackstands, the axle will hang down pretty low, seems like that would be enough space.

It is, I've done it that way before.

If your going to install a cutout you would probable be better off cutting the stock exhaust where you want the cutout before to make the install a little bit easier
