Do I need special tools to install axel backs?

You sure you can handle the weight of those things. They are pretty heavy when your laying on your back and trying to get them connected. I had mine installed but hey, more power to you if you can do it. Not being condescending, just don't want you to hurt yourself.

Sounds a little sexist... :-P

I'll be sure to double check my metric tools for the 13mm and 15mm sizes.
I can also back up on a couple of boards to get some extra clearance under the car.
No, it's true, I don't have the arm strength to hold the muffler above my head with one hand while I'm turning the wrench with the other. I do have someone that is going to help me.
You guys are great, thanks!

Mine didn't line up right and in the end I just took it to a muffler shop and paid them $30 to fix it. I didn't feel like pulling them out again and hammering on the hangers. And at the time I didn't have a jack or jackstands to get under there and loosen up the midpipe.
