WD-40 ALWAYS works lol. If it doesn't work let is sit and keep spraying it.

Or try I think its called PB Buster or something like that. Or you could also try liquid wrench. Just spray it with something and let it work for like 15-20 minutes. Then have a go at it. Lightly tapping with a hammer may help as well, just don't wail on it.

Thanks for the help, I let it soak, with the WD-40, and some Liquid Wrench for most of the afternoon. Got it all off, and put the new muffler on. Sounds great! Thanks Again!

heh i was just going to recommend using a rubber mallet on it. works great.. and no sitting around waiting
but, waiting isnt bad either.. so long as you arent in a huge hurry to get the new muffler on.
