removint muffler, advice!

I have everything unbolted and the cat off the car! I can't seem to seperate the muffler from the pipe in the middle of the system! After doing a search this seems to be somewhat impossible. I have my car on jack stands and can't remove the muffler and pipe all together as there isn't enough clearence, what's the best way to remove this? Maybe I'm missing something? Thanks!

Take off the shrouds and drop the whole system down in 1 piece.

What's the best way to remove the shrouds? They seem brittle and easy to break!
