Has anyone removed their old caback exhaust system while their car was on a ramp? I'm trying to remove mine but I cant get the piping over that rear bar. I think I need a car lift so the muffler can drop all the way down without touching the ground, then I could angle out the remaining piping. Has anyone had this same problem? Has anyone removed their oem catback exhaust on a car ramp?
 
What about removing that back bar temporarily? is that the axle?? is that a good idea? I dont think it would be, but I dont know...
 
I didnt have anything available to cut the steel pipping. Ultimately, i just drove it down the hill to a local mechanic, paid him 20 bucks to put it on a lift, and i removed it myself and put the new muffler on. There is NO way to remove a factory exhaust with a car ramp LOL. thanks guys!
 
I had to jack the rear of my GS about 3ft off the ground before there was enough room to swing the muffler down and around.

Lots of blocks and patience- do NOT get under the car with it that high off the ground unless you have it blocked.
