exhaust tip and body is one (1) inch.

19.

Tighten the head pipe v-band

clamp to 12 ft-lbs (if previously

loosened).

20.

Adjust each of the pipes to

ensure that all of the hanger pins

are parallel with the frame mounted

pins and that the rubber hangers are

all positioned slightly forward (See

Figure 2). The amount of forward

angle on the rubber hangers should

increase the farther downstream the

hanger is positioned.
This allows the hangers to be

properly positioned once the

exhaust system reaches operating

temperature.

21.

Install the exhaust clamp at

each of the three (3) joints. Figure

3 illustrates the proper location of

an exhaust clamp on a tubing joint.

Torque the nuts on each of the

exhaust clamps to 35 ft-lb. Note: If a

combination combination hanger/

clamp is utilized, evenly torque nuts

to 35 ft-lb. The clamps only need

to be tight enough to form a seal

and hold the pipes together. Over

tightening the clamps may cause the

system to leak due to the pipe being

crimped.

22.

Install exhaust tip by sliding it

over the outlet of the tailpipe. The

tip should be positioned so that

the drain hole is facing downward

and the outlet of the exhaust tip

is approximately one (1) inch past

the outlet of the tailpipe. NOTE: On

vehicles with dual rear wheels, the

outlet of the tip should be placed

approximately 3.5 inches past the

outlet of the tailpipe. Torque the

band clamp to 35 ft-lb.

23.

Remove the protective wrapping

from the polished exhaust tip.

24.

The Monster exhaust system

installation is now complete.
