the old one is welded together, so you can't unbolt it... i had to cut it twice because there wasn't enough clearance to get the pipe up and over the rear axle...

yea, my dad has ramps, so i used his driveway.. otherwise it's really hard to get under there and see what you're doing...

I used a lift, very easy. Cut your stock just in front of the axle and it'll slide right out. You also may want to spend a few extra bucks and get some bigger bolts. The bolts it comes with to bolt up to the rest of the pipe, are kinda puny for the holes they're going into.

Did you use the bolts it came with or did you pick up some thicker ones?
