Installation of MBRP Inc. Performance Exhaust:
1. Install
the
Front Pipe
onto the factory down pipe using the band clamp removed previously. Do not
fully tighten to allow for adjustment. For regular cab models, 3” must be removed from the non flared
end.
2.
Install the hanger removed previously by sliding the outside hole in the rubber
insulator over the
hanger on the
Front Pipe
and re-connect to the transmission.
3.
Install the
4" to 5” Adapter
over the
Front Pipe.
Then connect the
Mid Pipe
to the
4" to 5” Adapter
at the slip joint placing the bend around and under the cross member. Regular cab models do not
have this cross member. The
Mid Pipe
does not require cutting to fit crew cab trucks. For extended
cab trucks, approximately 9½” needs to be cut off the end with the longest straight section of pipe.
For regular cab trucks remove 2” from the end with the shortest straight section of pipe and
approximately 11½” from the end with the longest straight section of pipe.
(
Installation tip:
Temporarily hang the
Muffler
and the
Tail Pipe
in place and measure to the
Intermediate Pipe
to verify the length
required).
5. Rotate
the
Mid Pipe
toward the drive shaft and loosely install the
Hanger Clamp
with the shortest
hanger. This will support the Extension Pipe during the
Muffler
installation. Regular cab trucks do not
require the installation of this
Hanger Clamp.
6.
Crew cab & extended cab long bed trucks require the use of the
18" Extension Pipe
provided. This
is to be positioned between the
Muffler
and the
Mid Pipe
. The
18” Extension Pipe
is not required
with short box trucks.
7. Install
the
Muffler
over the required pipe so that the exhaust will flow
smoothly over the louvers. Refer to the illustration on the left.
8. Install
the
Hanger Clamp
into the OEM rubber hanger located on the
frame above the inlet of the
Muffler
.
9.
Install the
Tail Pipe
from the rear of the truck, over the axle and attach
to the
Muffler
outlet. To complete install the tail pipe hanger into the
OEM hanger and adjust for best axle clearance and
Tail Pipe
exit
location.
10. Install
the
Hanger Clamp
into the OEM rubber hanger located above the outlet of the
Muffler
.
11.
Install provided clamps around pipes where needed. Adjust
Tail Pipe
and check along the whole
length of the exhaust system to ensure there is adequate clearance around the fuel and brake lines or
any wiring. If any interference is detected relocate or adjust.
12.
Make sure exhaust is in place before tightening clamps. Start at the front of the exhaust system and
begin tightening all connections.
13. If a tip has been purchased, install and adjust to suit. Using a 17mm wrench tighten lock bolt located
on
Tip
.
A
Tip is not included with this kit.
Tips may be purchased separately, check with
your
dealer.
