DISASSEMBLY
1. Raise vehicle and support with proper jackstands for
the weight, leaving the suspension hanging.
2. Use caution around hot exhaust systems to avoid
burns.
3. Use penetrating oil on all nuts and bolts.
4. Remove the bolts and clamps from the system and
lubricate the rubber hangers.
5. Use a long pry bar to pull the rubber hangers off of the
pipe hangers.
6. Remove the old system. In some cases, you will find it
easier to cut the overaxle pipe to remove it.
Exhaust gas contains carbon monoxide, a deadly invisible gas. Correct any leaks before driving!
