factory tailpipe and muffler from the
rear of the catalytic converter. start
from the rear and work forward,
prying the pins from the rubber
hangers, removing the tailpipe, then
the muffler. if the slip joints will not
come apart, use a torch to heat the
connections until they separate, or cut
the pipes apart with a saw or torch. if
cutting the pipe from the rear of the
catalytic converter, be careful to not
cut the catalytic converter portion
of the pipe. save all hardware and
hangers as some items will be reused

holes on the frame rail. insert the pin
of the 3” hanger clamp provided into
the rubber hanger. slide the Dynaflow

the muffler with the pin on the factory
intermediate pipe. lightly tighten the
hanger clamp.
For Standard Cab and Extended
Cab installations:
remove the hanger
located near the front of the muffler by
unbolting it from the frame. Because
the location of the Banks Dynaflow

hanger will not be reused. slip a 3”
exhaust clamp over the inlet of the
muffler and slide the muffler into place
on the end of the factory intermediate
pipe.
For Excursion installation:
