Better to post in the regional section of the forum so you catch all the c1-c7 owners at once.

DIY....it's stupid easy....

back car car up on ramps
remove the 2 nuts and 2 bolts that hold rear sway bar
lower sway bar down.
loosen clamps from factory axle back.
remove muffler mounts.
remove x-pipe mounting springs
wiggle mufflers out and over rear end/drive shafts.
repeat backwards to install new axle back...
basic handtools can complete the job.

i can remove my axle back in 20 min...

Do you have a Corv. club locally? in the state? Suggestion: ask them who to use.
