i did it in my garage with a small hydro floor jack and 2 stands. the jack only had a lift of like 18" too. so with a 2.5ton floor jack, youll be set :thumbup:
if you buy a catback thats designed for u car, theres not welding, just bolting/unbolting. its a good idea to squirt the bolts with wd40, and use anti-seize on the new bolts if u ever want to take them off in teh future
