Default Exhaust Help

*I Don't know if I put this in the correct section so please move if anything*

Hi, I'm removing my stock exhaust system to install my new exhausts and I've ran into a problem. One of the nuts on the bolts on the muffler is pretty much stripped and it just spins on the bolt. How can I get this off? I've tried wedging a screwdriver behind it to hold it up but it didn't help one bit.

i believe you can knock those stationary bolts loose with enough force, if those are the ones you are talking about. since the bolt is already f*cked, bring out the hammer.

The 2 pretty long bolts that are bolted to the muffler and exhaust pipe right?
