Note: On extended-cab long-bed and

crew-cab long-bed vehicles, the clamp

that is used between the intermediate

pipe and muffler is a combination

hanger/clamp. When this hanger clamp

is installed the hanger pin should be

inserted into the factory rubber hanger

and the clamp should be rotated until

the hanger pin is parallel with the frame

mounted pin before being torqued.

Install the muffler onto the end

of the intermediate pipe outlet. Be

sure that the inlet side of the muffler

(see markings on muffler body)

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.
