its stuck because of the bend in the pipe going to the manifold hits the meatl plate on top of the catco when i go to pull it down and out...

do i not have the back of the car jacked up high enough.?

should i drop the front end off the jack stands and jack up the back.?

you may not understand what im trying to say but i think it might help it come out easier..

and incase you dont know this, my catco is still stuck to the rest of the exhaust with some tap welds .. thats why i need to get it down so i can get it off and take out the tap welds to disconnect the whole catco and replace it..

Probably not much help here on my end but can you take a few pictures?

Mine came right out, but I had it in the air on a hoist. It may just be the angle you are at. Try raising just the rear and see if it helps.

never jacked a car up in the rear. do i jack it up by the rear bumper reinforcement.?

and if this dont work ill take some pics and post them up.

now why would you think you are not much help...

unless you never seen underneath a 92-99 bonnie.

Been down there a few times Just never had done any exhuast work on mine yet. Mine is still all original with 214K

I just thought a few picture might help ous see what you can do to get it down.

Jack it up on the pinch welds on the rear. One side at a time

o.k its not working with the height i jacked the back up with..

my next idea involves a power tool and some serious sparks...

can i get under my car with a grinder and cut the pipe in between the catco and the resinator.? or will the sparks be too dangorus for any lines under the car.?

You sure can. If you have acess to a sawsall then that would be ideal. But a cutting wheel should do it.
