Abstract: The present disclosure pertains to a tool and repair method that facilitates restoring an exhaust pipe that has been become deformed as the result of a rear end collision which both restores to the pipes original shape and re-aligns the pipes to their original configuration, so the exhaust pipes can be re-attached to the pipe hanger without the need to replace the exhaust system pipes. The tool is comprised of a hydraulic piston cylinder, a stationary rectangular steel head attached to the body of the hydraulic piston, and a movable flat plate, located inside of the rectangular steel head and connected to the piston shaft of the hydraulic piston cylinder. To use the tool the deformed section of pipe is placed within the head of steel head of the compressive pipe repair apparatus when the cylinder piston shaft and movable flat plate are retracted.
