2012 Cadillac SRX Replace Corroded and Damaged Exhaust Resonators

2012 Cadillac SRX 3.6L FWD has and exhaust leak due to a punctured exhaust resonator. I had slice and dice most of this job because of corrosion. Went back in with a Walker 73010 kit from Summit. It came without hardware or gaskets and the slip on sleeve was too small, but I made it work.
Tools Used:
Grinder w/ cut off wheel and a wire wheel
Sawzall with a torch blade
air hammer with a tapered punch
Map gas torch
tail pipe expander rental from autozone 57027 or 27027
general hand tools
Parts list:
Walker exhaust kit 73010
