Install intermediate pipe heatshield
on intermediate pipe between primary and
secondary mufflers. Heatshields install with
the shield above the pipe, to protect the
coach floor. Because the location of factory
pipe hangers will vary, the installer must
provide a notch in the heat shield to clear
the hanger rod on the U-clamp hanger. See
Figure 12 . Make two saw cuts through
the folded lip of the heat shield, one inch
into the flat section beyond the fold line.
Locate the cuts either side of the hanger
rod location. Fold the metal between
the cuts back against the flat portion of
the shield to provide a clearance notch
for the hanger rod. Loosely clamp the 3”
U-clamps to the intermediate pipe so that
they can be positioned to line up with the
slots in the heat shield as shown in Figure
12. With the proper positioning of the
U-clamps determined, remove the heat
shield and tighten the U-clamps. Once this
is completed, install the 3 ⁄
8
” SAE washers,
heat shield, and 3 ⁄
8
”-16 flange nuts. See
Figure 12.

If an extension pipe has been installed
between the intermediate pipe and the
secondary muffler, an additional heat shield
will have been provided with the optional
extension pipe. Overlap this heat shield
with the heat shield on the intermediate
pipe as shown in Figure 12 . Mount the
shield so the forward end covers the slip
joint where the extension pipes join. If the
extension pipe had to be shortened for a
shorter wheelbase, overlap the heat shield
so that it will cover the slip joints at each
end of the extension pipe. The long heat
shield has clamp holes every few inches
to allow the shield to be positioned over
as much pipe length as possible when
installed. See Figure 12 . cut notches as
required to clear hanger rods.
