Broken rear exhaust hanger

[Spark plug]

My rear exhaust hanger is broken and can't replace it with new one as the bolts that holds the old mount up are rusted in and won't come out.

Anyone any ideas what I could do? Anyone else had this problem?

Are the bolts still intact? Or are the heads stripped?

Assuming your bolts are still intact, you basically need to either use a lot of torque to get the bolts out (e.g. a long breaker bar or an impact wrench) or try using some fluid to dislodge the rust, e.g. Plusgas or other similar

I'd recommend you also buy some new replacement bolts rather than using the same old ones when you bolt the new hanger back in.
