Do it bro! I used my Rhino Ramps from Pep Boys. No jack, no stands. Back it on the ramps, and have fun. It really is that easy.

Dude...you can do it. Put some WD-40 on the rubber hangers to help get them off. The bolts are 15mm and you can loosen and tighten by hand. Getting the stock exhaust off will probably be the harder thing to do.

Save yourself the money and build up you confidence by DIY. An extra set of hands can definately help but not absolutely necessary. Go call your friends and tell them you're buying beer and pizza.

If you were in my area I would help you out with both the lift and getting it installed. Unfortunately I'm probably 4.5 hrs away.

Do it yourself! Catbacks are super easy. Plus the cash you save can go to buy other toys!
