Hi Lippy,

I had to remove the driver's side pipe to deal with enlarging the opening as I said earlier. Both of my pipes went on with some difficulty and were very tight so I thought I was in for a real battle. I had also used Walker's exhaust seal. To my surprise, the pipe came off relatively easy. I disconnected the rear hanger and temporarily rested the sidepipe on a jack so I could wrap the hanger with rags in case it accidently touched the body. My wife wiggled the sidepipe around and I pushed and used my dead blow hammer from underneath the car and it came off relatively easy. For reassembly, I cleaned off the dried Walkers and reapplied it. The pipe went on fairly easily the second time, again with my wife wiggling the sidepipe around. I did not loosen the header pipes.
