There is no engine in so no front pipe or down pipe just the back box and mid pipe but unsure how you get the bugger off |

Should be held on with just rubber hangers AFAIK. You should be able to just lever them off from the chassis hooks I think - although splitting the exhaust into sections will probably make it easier. Can also just cut the rubbers with a sharp knife! |

If it's a large bore exhaust you may struggle On a driveway. I found you really need to get the drivers rear corner very high to wiggle the back box out. You must split the rear section and mid-pipe by unbolting the join. Jack up as high as you can and remove the drivers rear wheel. On some I also had to remove the rear crossmember (4 bolts ). How quick do you need it off? |

I can bring a couple round, most of my tools are in storage at the moment but I have basic tools available. What time? |

Mike - If you need any tools you can borrow mine. I'm on child duty Saturday morning so will struggle to get over to help. I have a mains powered impact gun that may assist in getting the cross-member off. |

When i put my fujitsubo exhaust on I took the wheel off and had to raise the car really high on axles stands to get it on. Would take 1 minute on a ramp however. |

I can have a look at this on Saturday afternoon when I come over. Will stick my racing jack and axle stands in the back of the car. Do you have basic tools - socket set, spanners and plenty of WD40 (or similar)? |
