I had some assistance from some friends.


With the car backed onto ramps, I had them use their feet to push up on the car while I slid it under. It took a few tries.. probably the hardest part to that install.

I did my install by backing up on ramps. As was already said the axle needs to drop which being on ramps doesnt allow it to do. My best suggestion would be to jack it up as high as you can and put some jackstands underneath it. For me that allowed the axle to drop enough where i was able to weasel the bend over the rear axle without having to undo the shoks or anything like that.

when i took my old magnaflow off, I had to unbolt bottom shock bolt(with Jack supporting it up), and lower the axle like an inch, and it came out. assuming install is reverse.
I think thats what I did when I installed them. But that was almost 4 years ago. I can't remenber what i did. But thats how I got it out

the way I did it with ramps was to back up on the ramps then put the jack uner one side of the body at the rear lift point. jack up the car until the body starts to move then unbolt the lower part of the shock. Then jack the body up another bit till you can get the pipe over the axle. Lower the body enough to rebolt the shock. rinse repeat on the other side.
