Replacing exhaust flex pipe on a semi truck.

I had a pretty bad exhaust leak right under my sleeper bunk. A $110, 2 foot long piece of flex pipe will fix it. It was a heck of a job. See the struggle in this video. Don't ignore exhaust leaks. Carbon monoxide poisoning can be deadly.
Tools needed:
1. 9/16 wrench
2. 9/16 deep socket and ratchet
3. Shop hammer
4. Chisel
5. Vice grips
6. Pry bar
Parts needed:
1. 2 foot long flex pipe (5 1/2" exhaust)
2. 2 flex pipe exhaust clamps (5 1/2")
