Well I guess at this point I also have to remove the exuast pipe out of the way any tricks like the opening from under the back seat will not help much due to it just a place for the wire harness or should i just cut the metal to get access to the pump (just kidding its frustrating)

O.K. drive axles need to be removed and rear seat to disconnect wiring and exhaust unbolt front muffler isolater brackets and hangers. I don't see how this can be done without a lift.
