Default Xj Exhaust Install

Hey y'all. So I've purchased a used exhaust system off craigslist (magnaflow for anyone who's interested) and I'm going to attempt to install it myself, but I've got a few questions. The whole thing (tailpipe, muffler, catalitic converter) is already put together with clamps, and is just rusty enough to where I'll pull my shoulder trying to get them apart. Is it possible to install the whole thing without taking it apart?

Off the top of my head thinking it is the tail pipe that is going to give you a problem.
But doable.
Hey they got it off in one piece.
Might have taken it off on a lift though.
Getting the Jeep in the air as much as you can and angling in from the side might help.

I just installed the exhaust on my build, and yes you can do it all in one shot. I put mine together, put it in place to make sure it fit right, then took it back down to weld everything before the final install.

I removed a muffler and tailpipe from one and put it on another. One had a 2” lift and the other a 6” though.
