intermediate pipe. Do not tighten the
clamp at this time.
68.
Slide the outlet of the provided
exhaust brake outlet pipe onto the
intermediate pipe.
NOTE: Disengaging the intermediate
pipe and tailpipe hangers from their
rubber mounts may ease installation
of the exhaust brake outlet pipe. Spray
lubricant (i.e. WD-40, etc.) and a pry bar
will make disengagement of the
hangers a much simpler task.
69.
Engage the exhaust brake outlet
pipe in the V-band clamp. Snug the
clamp and ensure that the pipe is
centered on the V-band flange on the
brake housing. Torque the V-band
clamp to 12 ft-lbs.
70.
Adjust the engagement of the
slip joint until the hangers on the
intermediate pipe and tailpipe are
positioned slightly forward as shown
in
Figure 19. Position the band clamp
as shown in Figure 20 and torque
the clamp to 35 ft-lbs.
NOTE: On vehicles with factory exhaust,
the edge of the exhaust brake outlet
pipe should be lined up with the mark
made in
Step 63. However, this joint
can be adjusted in or out approximately
1 ⁄ 4 " as required to properly adjust the
exhaust hangers.
71.
Install the pneumatic line into
the pneumatic fitting located on the
rear of the brake actuator cylinder.
See
Figure 21. NOTE: The hose should
be trimmed as required to allow the
hose to follow the torsion bar cross
member and then gently arc towards
the actuator. Retain the remaining hose
for use on the remote vent line. Do not
allow hose to touch exhaust
components, otherwise it may be
damaged by the heat.
72.
Install one end of the remaining
pneumatic line into the pneumatic
fitting on the forward end of the
brake actuator cylinder.
73.
Route the line across the torsion
bar cross member above the
previously installed line. Using the
supplied tubing clamps and self
threading
1 ⁄ 4 -20 bolts, mount the
pneumatic hose to the torsion bar
cross member as shown
in
Figure 15. NOTE: The self-threading
bolts require a 7 ⁄ 32 " pilot hole to be
drilled for proper thread formation.
NOTE: Be sure to route all plastic lines
away from exhaust components. If
plastic hose rests on exhaust or
