Removal of Stock system:

1. Apply a penetrating lubricant liberally to all exhaust fasteners, hangers
and rubber insulators.

2. Loosen the nut on the band clamp located behind the catalytic converter
using a 15mm wrench or socket.

3. Remove the muffler and tail pipe from the OEM rubber hangers. If a hoist is
being used the system can be removed in one piece by removing the bottom
shock bolt of the passenger side on 03-04 models. This is not required on 05
to 07 models. Separate the stock exhaust at the slip joint, located behind the
catalytic converter and remove the muffler and tail pipe from under the truck.
Re-install the bottom shock bolt. If a hoist is not being used you will have to
cut the tail pipe behind the muffler and remove the exhaust in two pieces.

4. Using a 15mm wrench or socket, remove the catalytic converter by
removing the two nuts holding the inlet flange together.

5. Using an 11mm socket, remove the down pipe from the turbo by removing
the band clamp. Retain the band clamp for the installation of the new down
pipe. Cut the down pipe in front of the transmission cross member to remove.
(Note: The stock down pipe can be removed in one piece by removing the
transmission cross member. MBRP Inc. recommends that this procedure only
be done by qualified, trained professionals using tools and equipment designed
to safely carry out this process.)
