These tricks were amazingly simple and effective. I used a 4 foot piece of hemp rope wrapped around the muffler and the trailing arm and tied in a square knot. Stuck a screwdriver in and twisted, all the while watching the hangars until they came close enough I could slide the ring around 'em. I did the passenger side first, then the driver side (make sure you don't interfere with anything like the fuel pump). This made the job super-easy!
