Having fun yet? I did my car last year. Be sure you have all the correct hanger parts. I started with the rear muffler after loosely bolting up the header pipes. I assume you have the system assembled. use some jacks and or wire for temporary support where needed. First, loop to hardest to reach a rubber donut onto the frame mount furthest to the back and position onto the muffler hanger which attaches to the muffler. I would suggest doing this without the hanger mounted to to muffler. Grease the second donut with soap, loop onto the muffler's hanger and use a lever to slide it onto the frame mount. When you do this you will see why you "soap" it up. It will slide. Now position the rear muffler into the cavity and put the nut onto the retaining bracket, again for the rear mount. don't tighten yet. soap both front donuts and install the inner one. this should be fairly easy. Lever the last one on like you did the second one. It will be easier. Tighten the rear hanger mount. Rear muffler is done. When you are ready to install the donuts onto the center muffler pipe. How much stretch do you need? Sometimes the setup requires lots of stretch. You may break the donut. I did. I picked up a couple of generic ones at Advance to complete the job. they stretched well and have worked well for over one year so far. Soap these too. Any good dish detergent or liquid hand soap will work. it dries over time and will not damage anything- it is essential to get the mounts on. Good luck!

How do you remove muffler on a 2002 Miata?
The muffler is held be a few rubber exhaust hangers and 2 bolts connecting the muffler to the catalytic converter pipe.Raise the rear of the car on ramps or jack stands.Loosen the two bolts connecting the exhaust to the exhaust pipe. Often the nuts/bolts are rusted and sprays such as Liquid Wrench or PB Blaster should be used.Once the nut/bolt is removed, the exhaust is free to be removed from the rubber exhaust hangers. Some viscous liquids like dish soap or oil, forced in with a small stick or flathead screwdriver can be used to pull the exhaust from it's hangers.When the exhaust is replaced use a new exhaust gasket between the exhaust and catalytic converter exhaust pipe.These basic instructions can apply to any year Miata.

What is the part to hold the muffler in place 99 cavalier and it's missing this part?
This can be the muffler hanger, a rubber hanger to suspend the muffler or a muffler clamp to tie the muffler in place. I don't have alot of money and when I first got my 96 my muffler was hanging a few inches from the ground. All you have to do is get metal with holes in it......lift the car...put a cinder block or something under the muffler... and drop the car just enough to put it in place (Use a large jack that you have a handle on...and do it carefully...practice even so you don't screw your car up). Then find a place in the floor panels where the screw won't come through and use the right size screw with a screw gun. You may have to pre-drill the hole.
