You need to make sure the new pipe is square in order to get the v-bands on. I cut the part off the v-band that hold the ends together. This allowed me to put needle nose pliers on the v-bands to draw them close enough together to start the bolt. I then did the front one with the silicone coupler attached.
Thanks for the tips, we appreciate your contribution!
