7a. The exhaust system is covered by a series

of heat shields. See Figure 8.42.

The top (exhaust) heat shield covers the exhaust
system from the manifold to the muffler.

The muffler heat shield covers just the muffler.
See Figure 8.43.

The heat shields must be kept in place and in
good condition to prevent damage to the cargo
box and its contents.
