Default Cat. converter question

ok so im removing mine to gut it cause its falling apart from the inside... its a 93 Si Lude... my question is what do u guys normally use to get to the nuts on the top of the pipe. I cant get a regular socket or wrench in there to get to it... i got 4 out of 6 bolts off and cant get the top 2 off... Would a knuckle help? I can go buy one...

Take the hangers off, and the flex pipe will bend down far enough to get those two other bolts.

Mine were rust intergrated onto the flange. Angle grinder cut them right off.
