How would you remove an old rusted tailpipe that's broken off at the point where it goes into the muffler?

Heres how i eventually did it ... 1. Using needle nose locking pliers i held the pipe to the muffler so that it wouldnt get knocked back into the muffler. 2. Then using a cold chisel i made a gap between the muffler (the part that houses the pipe) and the pipe. I did this so that the pipe could be cut through without also cutting the muffler. 3. Then using a power saw with a metal cutting blade i cut through the tailpipe. 4. Then I was the able to crimp the edges of the pipe up and pull it out. 5. Have a beer for a job well done !!!

You have exhaust leak where the pipe rusted through and this makes the loud noise. You can go to a parts store and get a exhaust repair kit to fix the hole. This is only a temporary fix and might not be enough to fix the repair. Otherwise, you have to go to a muffler shop so they can replace the rusted section.

How do you remove muffler on John Deere stx38?
I'm having the same issue. I'm trying to replace my front axle and I need to remove the muffler to get to the axle bolt. Please help. I recently replaced the front axle on my STX38 so I took off the muffler as well. The muffler's heat shield needs to come off first, I think there's just two bolts holding that in place on the front of it. If I remember correctly, there were 4 bolts total securing the muffler. There are two bolts towards the front of the muffler that connect vertically to the body of the mower, these need to be removed. If you look at the very top of the muffler where it connects to the engine you'll see another two bolts that need to be removed. I had a tough time getting these two completely out since mine were a bit rusted but they did eventually come off. Once all these bolts are removed, I had to wiggle the muffler out of the bottom of the mower. For the people doing front axle replacement - once the muffler is removed you should have access to the bolt securing the axle.
