Removing tranny with one-peice exhaust?

[SM0k3]

ok heres the deal my exhaust system is welded together as one peice, and i can only unbolt it from the headers but the tailpipes are welded to the mufflers and the mufflers are welded to the x-pipe and i need to remove the tranny to do a clutch install.

Normally i would just unbolt the crossmemeber bolts and let the tranny drop down a bit but since i cant do that some kind of way im gonna have to slide the tranny out through the front(toward engine).

Any suggestions on removing it? If i had some type of cutting tool handy I just cut the tails off and have them put back on later but i dont so eh...

Id just remove the entire exhaust, yes it will be a pain but still its gonna be easier then working around it.

maybe someone else can tell you what you want to hear but in my opinion you need to go to the store and buy a hacksaw. mine is the same way i had to cut mine to install shorty headers because they were in a bind muffler shop welded it back in place for $5. anyways i put you back on top of threads and goodluck.
