Post Help With 2000 XJ Tailpipe

I have a 2000 XJ and I bent the tailpipe when I was wheeling...I ordered a new pipe from quadratec, factory fitting...I just wanted some advice on installing it, I have never done an installation like this before, what do I need to know? What should I look out for? Your help is appreciated!

I recommend using a sawzall and cutting the pipe off right before the bend, they sell adapters at your local auto parts store that should just bolt right on, pretty simple. Oh, and don't bother trying to save the ubolts, if you have an angle grinder just cut those off as well and buy new ones, they're cheap.

sounds like a good idea, wish I had know before I purchased the new tailpipe...do you know anything about using the existing one Ive purchased because it seems like more of a hassle to try and return it, it was only fifty bucks...thanks

x2 I attempted to save my u bolts and ended up just beating the sh** out of them to get them off. Let us know how it goes!
