if you push the pipes side to side a little they will eventually just slide on in to the poiint where they wont move anymore, be sure to keep checking the bolts all throughout becuase they loosen up and your tailpipes will drop a little, mainly the one on the right due to the fac that it has no bracket holding it. hope that helps

Okay good to know. Did you put any grease or anything to help them slide?

When I took my Muffler off the hear what it would sound like with a cut-out... I tried to put it back on with elbow grease and it didnt work so i put so WD-40 inside the pipe and on the muffler and it was more easier to put back on.

Well i used as much elbow grease as i could. So maybe it is all the way on, it just doesn't seem like it. Maybe i'll just try to pull it out a little and spray a little wd-40.

Well i got my car almost running good. It only misses at idle and barely if any while driveing. Got all the bolts on the exaust all tight. It sounds great. Better then i thought it would of. It is sort of queit at idle but you can still tell. But when your cruising it sounds very nice. Has a nice deep tone to it.
