RE: muffler
If you don't have a lift it is a little bit uncomfortable
but it can be done.
You need a 9/16 socket with braker bar to twist
off the pipe clamps. They will break if rusty.
If the muffler pipe goes over the mating pipe
you need to use an air chisle to cut the muffler
flange. If you are replacing the front pipe also
you just dissconnect the pipe from the cat
pipe connector.
You need to remove the muffler hanger.
The new muffler goes on in the reverse order.
It is best to dry fit the pipes on the bench.
Also tighten the new clamps a lot to crimp the
pipe flanges or they will fall off with road bounces.
Good luck
