Removal of stock system:
1.
Apply a penetrating lubricant liberally to all exhaust fasteners, hangers and rubber insulators.
2.
Loosen the band clamp located behind the catalytic converter and disconnect the factory exhaust
system.
3.
Remove the exhaust system from the rubber insulators and remove from under the vehicle. If a hoist
is not available for use, it may be necessary to cut the tail pipe behind the muffler for removal of the
system.
4.
Remove the spare tire. You may not be able to reinstall your spare tire after the installation of this
exhaust system.
Installation of MBRP Inc. Performance Exhaust:
1.
Place the 3.5” to 5” Adapter into the factory band clamp located behind the catalytic converter.
2.
Connect the Mid Pipe to the 3.5” to 5” Adapter at the slip joint placing the bend around and under
the 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.
Installation tip: Temporarily hang the Muffler and the Tail Pipe in place and measure to the
Adapter to verify the length required.
3.
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.
4.
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 bed trucks.
5.
Install the Muffler over the required pipe so that the exhaust will flow
smoothly over the louvers. Refer to the illustration on the left.
6.
Install the Hanger Clamp into the OEM rubber hanger located on the
frame above the inlet of the Muffler.
7.
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.
8.
Install the Hanger Clamp into the OEM rubber hanger located above the outlet of the Muffler.
9.
Install the provided clamps around the pipes where needed. Adjust the Tail Pipe and check along
the whole length of the exhaust system to ensure that there is adequate clearance around the fuel
and brake lines or any wiring. If any interference is detected relocate or adjust.
