magnaflow question

[5spdBlack]

Hey guys i just purchased the magnaflow catback and the install was going fine until i got the the passengers side. i put the first pipe and the muffler on fine, then i got to the tricky part...putting on the end part of the catback i can't fit it over the axle! me and my buddy tried taking off the upper control arm to get the pipe over put we couldn't get the bolts off the arm. They would only come out like halfway and not anymore. anyone know how to take them out and put them back in?? and how do i get the pipe over the axle? please help guys thanks.

I'm not exactly sure what you're asking. If you're trying to get the stock exhaust out, your best bet is cutting it.

If you're trying to get the mannaflow pipes in, they're somewhat of a pain, but can be worked into place.

If you put the rear up on jack stands without resting the rear axles on the stands, you should be able to work that pipe in.

Do you have pics of it? Im pretty confused here.

It's like Jinx said. You just need to get the car up higher. I had to jack each side up considerably higher just to get each new pipe in. I did the job with stands under the axles, but just jacked up the body while inserting the new tail pipes...

My install was done on a lift and nothing other than the old exhaust had to be removed.

Rear axle needs to hang to get the passenger side in. I had to loosen the exhaust hanger right there to get it to go in. After that it was gravy.
