yes? no?

I've got my car up pretty darn high and can't get clearance to get them wiggled up underneath there. Rear suspension's completely unloaded, shocks and sway bar unbolted. Anyone?

What kind of exhaust are you trying to put on ? I have the Roush off road extreme on my car and it has pipes that go over the axle. I had to make sure the suspension was unloaded, but did not loosen the sway bar. It took a lot of patience, moving the pipes around at different angles and a rubber mallet helped. The bends in the pipes were similar so I just had to make sure I had them on the right side. So it can be done.

PITA.

Patience. That's a song by Guns N' Roses. Great song, but something I lack. I'll try again tomorrow. After further thought, I got them out w/out a lift, so I'm sure* I can get them back in. Putting the stock pipes back in after removing a Pypes mid-muffler system.

*hope
