Step 2 Cont.: Working rearward, install the
downpipe extension using the pre-welded 4.00"
clamp. Use the converter extension pipes if you
would like to retain the catalytic converter. If you
are removing the catalytic converter, install the
downpipe extension and 4x9" pipe using the
supplied 4" clamps and by fitting the welded
hanger into the OEM rubber insulator. Leave all
clamps and fasteners snug for final adjustment of
the complete system. Crew Cab-Long Bed models
use the 18" extension pipe, shorter truck models
may need to trim the 18" extension pipe for a
proper fit or discard it. Once you have determined
which extension pipes are needed, install them
using the supplied 4.00" clamps as shown. Install
the muffler, Y-pipe, tailpipe extensions, and
tailpipes in a similar fashion using the supplied
clamps, hanger clamps, and hanger bracket. The
hanger bracket is to be installed on a predrilled
hole in the frame as shown in Diagram 5. Note:
The passenger's hanger clamp is slightly longer on
the end than the driver's hanger clamp. The 4.00"
band clamps are supplied to fasten the tips to the
tailpipes.
Step 3: With all components mounted loosely,
adjust the system for overall aesthetics and
clearance of frame & bodywork. (MAGNAFLOW
recommends at least 1/2" of clearance between
the exhaust system and any body panels to prevent
heat-related body damage or fire.)
Step 4: Once a final position has been chosen for
the new system, evenly tighten all fasteners from
front to rear. The supplied band clamps must be
VERY tight to properly align the pipes and
prevent leaks (Approximately 40ft-lbs). U-bolt
clamps should be tightened to approximately
30-35ft-lbs. Inspect all fasteners after 25-50 miles
of operation and retighten if necessary.
