Thank you for the excellent video, as always. If I can manage to get the (original) exhaust off by heating up the nuts with a small MAPP gas torch, the rest should be easy enough to handle! Just wish I had a garage and not the great outdoors to do this job ;-)
5:39 so the flex pipe is the whole thing you're taking out? I thought it was just the braided-looking part. That thing is rattling in my car, so I have to replace the whole thing?
Wipe some Ronsonol lighter fluid on the label, then use a heat gun and it will peel right off. Also, there’s a tool for removing those exhaust hangers.
I believe there are 3 14mm nuts. Just drill out the old bolt if it broke. You won't even need the threads. You can put a grade 8 3/8 in bolt with a nut on the back side if you drill it out. I had to do the same.

If I cut the old studs off, is it necessary to use exhaust studs or can I simply use the bolts and nuts that came with my new flex pipe?
Nvm I see it and it’s the exact one I bought you are the man I’m instantly following you

How much would it cost to do a complete exaust replacement - including the header? Loved the video!
That pipe has a catalytic converter in it, right?
This would be so much easier if I owned a car lift!
Exactly. Not having a lift is 90% of the problem. The rest is just unscrewing bolts. Doing this w/just car ramps/jacks is a bitch...
So it does have a gasket where the pipe bolts to the manifold I didn’t see one??

It would be a better help if you specify the 2.5 liter or the 3.5.
this looks like a 3.5
It’s the same thing with the 2.5

It's funny the one on my car is actually leaking in the flat spot that's located exactly under the back part of sub frame
Nice, bro!...
What’s the reason for replacing the flex pipe?
Rusted through and leaking.
