Default billy boat exhaust installation

i have a kwiklift and wonder if anyone else out there has changed an exhaust (converter and over axle pipes) on a kwiklift and if so any special things to do? i would rather not cut the stock exhaust off if possible

i have installed a b&b prt on my 04 using the quicklift. there is not quite enough room to remove without cutting so i had to use a floor jack to raise each corner a few inches so i could remove intact. great inexpensive lift.

The back needs to be about 36" off the ground.

Check out this post with pictures. He did it without cutting on a kwiklift. Good luck.
