On top of that ^^^, a prybar will slide them off effortlessly.

I'd leave the hangers on the frame(the metal part). When you go do your exhaust down the road, the exhaust shop has an oem hanger there to use.

I don't remember how but I just took my hanger off when I hacked off the back of my tailpipe. It wasn't anything. That was the back one past the rear axle.
