Well good to hear you're going to document it. Take plenty of pics and get with a moderator and perhaps we can get a sticky up for the how-to . Take pics of everything you do as you go along who knows something MAY be of some help to someone else down the line. Good luck man.

Anything will be better than nothing. Basically take pics before you start then take pics after removing bolts of areas bolts were removed then pics of the new parts then of the areas where you had to take brackets off or had to pull things apart (Pics of the removal with the parts off under it or coming apart maybe?) then maybe pics of the old completely out and of what is left underneath that you use again then of course a few pics of the reverse of the new going it and of course everything when it's finished.

lol, I can't get my car lifted enough to use a long tube... plus the exhaust moves when you really put pressure on it... its on hangers remember? ...so I couldn't put full force on it... And even if I do get it off the cat converter I have to remove 3 more from where the muffler pipe connects to the middle pipe... because it goes over the rear axle ya know?.. I'd never get any of that done...

formula PB penetrating oil.... its 1 million times better then wd-40(which is just a water displacment lubercating silicone) Pb is the most potient potable out there I can Promess if you soak those bad boys in formula Pb for 30 min they will come right off. Also for the rear bolts just cut them off, thats what i did.... unless your planing on keeping the old exaust then put some pb on them.
