How difficult is it to replace the exhaust clamps?

The two clamps between the cat and the exhaust? My clamps look like they are ready to fall off. One has a clamp already missing from the sleeve. Do I need to drop the exhaust to slide/bang these on?

Shouldn't have to drop exhaust, but I have had to use torch to cut the bolts that hold them...

because of excessive rust.

2nd that. Die grinder with a cutting wheel works well, too. Just watch the kickback.
