well, i read that you can spray the hanger with wd40 or some lubricant. are there any other ways? im going to try wd40 right now, ive been trying to do this for 30 mins now, no luck

How about you explain the problem first off buddy... and if the problem is getting it out of the hanger then cut the hanger. they are really cheep to replace! a few bucks. otherwirse just work it out of the slot.

Those hangers are a pain in the rear! I usually use WD40 and pull with both hands on each side. Comes off pretty good that way.

when you put the muffler back on use some sort of grease and put it on the hangers then you wont have this problem in the future

any type of lubricant works. i just use motor oil when i don't have wd-40.
