    Hey is there any trick to removing the hard rubber hangers in order to install my new flowmaster catback? should I just grind em off and get new ones?

    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.
    Elbow grease and some lube and they will pop right off.

    try using some sort of pole on the back end. beat the crap out of it until it gets started going over that little ridge, then just work it off from there. just installed my cat back yesterday and had to do this at least 20 times

    I find white lithium works the best.

    WD40 or PB Blaster works if you don't have lithium grease around.
