Warning: When working on, under, or around any vehicle exercise caution. Please allow the vehicle’s exhaust system to cool before removal, as exhaust system temperatures may cause severe burns. If working without a lift, always consult vehicle manual for correct lifting specifications. Always wear safety glasses and ensure a safe work area. Serious injury or death could occur if safety measures are not followed. Step 1: (Carefully read all instructions before installation) Remove the OEM system by unbolting the flange located behind the catalytic converter and the flange located near the muffler inlet. Carefully remove the OEM system making sure not to damage any of the original mounting hardware or rubber isolators, as they will be needed to install your new MAGNAFLOW system. Step 2: Attach the Inlet Pipe Assembly at the flange junction using the OEM fasteners. Working front to rear install the rest of the new system by locating the hangers into the appropriate OEM isolator and by using the supplied clamps. Step 3: With all components mounted loosely, adjust the system for overall aesthetics and clearance of frame & bodywork. (MAGNAFLOW recommends at least 1/2″ of clearance between the exhaust system and any body panels to prevent heat-related body damage or fire.) Step 4: Once a final position has been chosen for the new system, evenly tighten all fasteners from front to rear. The supplied band clamps must be VERY tight to properly align the pipes and prevent leaks (Approximately 65ft-lbs). U-bolt clamps should be tightened to approximately 30-35ft-lbs. inspect all fasteners after 25-50 miles of operation and retighten if necessary.
