Rear silencer was created by Daniel30
As I'm in rust prevention mode I have been under the back of the jimny, The rear silencer is rotten and the heat shield rattles so had a look at the first join and the nuts are rotten, the next join with the spring things on I can't move the nuts so do I cut the back box off and get something to rejoin the new back box on?
Cheers

Yeah think I would but I don't know how to attach it everything is seized so I was wondering if I cut the exhaust just after the springy thing could I attach the new bit that would attach to the new backbox

keep trying to loosen the bolts - penetrant and hammers (or get garage to apply heat) or just grind the bolts/nuts off and get new ones
