Once the exhaust has been disconnected from the manifolds and the rear hangers, can you snake it out from underneath the vehicle in one piece or would you have to cut it to take it out?

TIA, Kevin

I cut mine to get it out because I was geeting new exhaust and didn't care. It looked to me like the other option was to take my rear end off and then pull the pipes out.

I could not get mine out without cutting. Its tucked up super tight, fully welded, etc and no way I could get em out, lest I dropped the rear.


Plus, the friggin sawzall is just so much fun!

Just as I thought, Dave Palmer if you read this post, bring the saws all.

You could always just lift the body off then remove it. I did. :p


Sometimes you can remove them without cutting but you would need the car on a lift with the rear hanging. Even then you may need to discon the shock(s).
