Hotrod, the email you posted is not the right one. Would you check again and repost. I really want to buy the magnaflow system at that price but I have not been able to find it anywhere for that cheap.

My Magnaflow cat Back arrived yesterday. The installation guide recommends cutting the stock exhaust right behind the middle muffler. I'm like WTF!!
So I crawled up under it and indeed it is a one piece system behind the front flange. I was wondering if it was possible to pull it out in one piece, looked possible but wasn't sure. I don't want to cut the stock exhaust in half so I'll follow your lead on starting at the front and jacking up the back to open up the space between the axle and the bottom of the chassis.
Can you tell me where you placed the jack to lift the body and not the axle?? I'm not at home (on the road again) so I can't check. Seems like there's a scissors jack for the axle or is there a lift point on the body? I've not read my manual that close, sorry.
Thanks again for the tips. I was looking at the hangers and the nipples on the new exhaust. I was concerned how hard it would be to get the stock hangers off the rubber mounts, they look dang tight.... any tips on removing the hangers other than some astro glide and WD40 and tugging really hard??
I'll probably install the Magnaflow this weekend. Get some pics up if I get the thing on, the quality seems really nice and the chrome engraved tips are too sweet.

I put the jack on the frame in front of the passinger rear wheel. You won't need to lift the rear wheel of the ground.

REALLY? Then what am I to hang my new exhaust on? You have a new set of dampers I can have??? The new exhaust does NOT include new rubber dampers.

Now that's good advise. THANKS buddy! Looking forward to hearing my Hummer growl this weekend!
