If it is just the rear muffler it is easy. I was going to do it at home, but there is an exhaust shop real close that had done work for me previously. Decided it was worth having him do it to use the hoist and only charged me $20 US.

Would be easy enough to yourself: Just measure and cut stock pipe, take off the old muffler, slide the new one on and push on the rubber hangers, then tighten the clamp. Mine fit perfectly with no adjustment needed.

If you are only bolting up (not welding), you may want to consider using exhaust sealent to avoid leaks.
