Boral Muffler Installation.

For the muffler swap, there is no need to jack the car, and only one tool, and a little bit of muscle should be needed:

  1. Curb wheels
  2. Turn off car
  3. Put in park or 1st or R gear
  4. Set Emergency break
  5. abscond with 15mm deep socket wrench
  6. lay on ground behind neon, orient primary hand (left or right) on driver side
  7. loosen single bolt on neon muffler clamp (do not remove, just loosen it a good bit, the clamp is a part of the muffler and does not come off)
  8. pull off rubber hanger (no bolts/screws) on passenger side of muffler - you can pry this off and pull on the muffler to help, there is plenty of play, pulling these hangars requires practice, and persistence, once experienced, the next time you do it it'll be a snap.
  9. pull off rubber hanger on driver side of muffler
  10. wiggle off muffler (do not drop on ground, or fingers)
  11. reverse above to install new muffler
  12. Note, new clamp is conventional type and has two nuts (!), do not overtighten! Don't want to crimp the pipes together too well.

Done! You should be able to do this with little fuss. You might have a friend with a nice tool box (full of tools) help out.
