It's only connected at the rear of the muffler and near the end of the tail pipe. I'll get a picture to show what I have if need be in the morning.

Catalog from Walker for parts reference:

Also, are the exhaust clamps just pressure fit, since the pieces aren't slotted to allow compression, or am I supposed to slot them?
88-4X4 can't see it on mine but if there is no place for it a lot of times you can use the hanger that goes on a clamp
and hang it in a more convenient spot
clamps tighten without notches
