Default removal of stock exhaust!!!

I'm in the process of removing my stock exhaust 04 GT and I have one side free and ready to remove but how in the h*** do you pull them out from underneath there.I'd rather not chop them up.I hope the LM1's go in easier than they come out.

You'll have to either drop the axle down some or cut the stock exhaust behind the muffs.

No, he means that since the stock system is one peice, you will have to cut it, or drop the axle. The catback comes in parts, so you can just stick um in there and bolt it up. Just cut the old one out. It will be alot easier.

Gotcha, Now I want to make sure I hear you correct.The LM1's even the older ones with the welded resonators come in pcs. and easily bolted up?

Get your car in the air and let the rear end hang, it should give you enough room to wiggle that baby out.

No doubt about it. Catbacks come in parts, so you can do it yourself. Those things are going to sound great!!!!! Do u have a stock midpipe?

It'll sound great. And yes it comes in pieces.

Just cut it right behind the muffler and re-weld it when you're done. That way you can still sell it on ebay.
