Corsa Exhaust install question
I'm planning on installing the Corsa Tiger Shark Touring Exhaust on my 2000' C5 and would like to know if this is something that I can do by myself?
I have a 4 Post Lift in the garage. It looks like all I have to do is unbolt the exhaust on both sides from in front of the rear and slip them out of the rubber bushings behind the rear bumper. Then just reverse the process for the install.
Any tricks I should know about or any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

You will want to remove the two bolts and the the two nuts that hold the rear sway bar, and let it swing down out of the way. This will give you more room to manuever the old exhaust out of the way in one piece. if you are not concerned about the stock exhaust, a lot of members have cut them to make removal easier. The new exhaust conisists of several pieces that bolt together so it is a lot easier to put on than to get the old one out.

If you don't want to cut the old exhaust, you will have to remove the sway bar to get the passenger side off. Some people have had trouble getting the sway bar bolts back in after the fact due to poor tapping from GM. Just something to be aware of.
