the only way to slip it out is to drop the rear end and most likely unbolt the whole twisting beam. i normally just cut it off. done a bunch now and have never succesfully slipped one out without taking off the beam, which means bleeding brakes .... ugh.

Yes, if you cut the cat-back at the rear beam you can do it on jack stands/lift.

the rear axle does not droop far enough down to slip the exhaust out, doesn't matter if it's on stands or a lift.
