Sawzall, good 18-24TPI blades, lots of lubricating oil. If you've got room for the blade travel. Try to make sure to get the end square. John. _______________________________________________ Shop-tal

Angle grinder with a cutoff wheel rated for use with metal would be my choice. In fact I did just that a few months ago, except my exhaust was mild steel. -- Randall ________________________________

IMHO ... it depends on where you want to cut it and what's around it. My first thought would be the sawz-all but that would only be if it was reasonably attached to something. My experience with them

Sounds like a good excuse to buy a plasma cutter. Or, as others said, saw or air grinder w. cut-off wheel. Is there no reasonable way to get it out without cutting? It sounds like a not-so-old car; c

I think you should do whatever would cause the least damage to the surrounding area. Mazdaspeed3. http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/shop-talk/doug@dougbraun.com __________________________________

Not "Not so". I think I stated "cut from just one side" which implied 'like a cutoff saw' or that "extra cuts" or working your way around the pipe or hacking the pipe out in several pieces was not a

Maybe. Let me recap: This needs about a 120-150 degree swing to work, and I don't know how well Harbor Freight cutting wheels will handle stainless exhaust pipe. I have a KD Tools or whatever equival

Sorry, my mistake. I did not think "cut from just one side" excluded taking it out in pieces. But if the issue is just that one side of the pipe is up against a panel, then you can cut a pipe thicke

I think I'll go with the sawzall. I may drop the pipe first, strap it down and support it, then cut. That way I'll have more room. Removing the pipe without cutting requires dropping the rear suspens
