INSTRUCTIONS:
NOTE:  do not tighten any clamps or nuts and bolts until the last step!!  Before cutting any pipes it is a good idea to lay out all the included pipes along side the vehicle and get a good idea of how the pipes will hang on the vehicle.  Please read the instructions fully and thoroughly before you begin.

1)  Remove the exhaust system by cutting the muffler off of the pipe that runs from the muffler to the converter.  You will need to cut the pipe as close to the inlet of the muffler as possible.  Leave the O.E. hanger connected to your existing front pipe.

2)  Install the y-pipe to the extension pipe using the 2” clamp.  For those with the long box only, install the i.d. end of the adapters to the ends of the y-pipe using 2-1/4” clamps.

3)  You may want to remove the O.E. hanger that is at the end of the O.E. tail pipe.  Install the i.d. end (inlet) of the right tail pipe to the y-pipe and use a 2-1/4” clamp to connect the two pipes.  Install a THU900 360 swinger hanger to the frame near where the rear O.E. hanger was ( a little in front of where it was at).  Use the existing bolt hole if possible, or drill a 5/16” hole in the frame after the rear axle but before where the tips will be.  Use a 5/16” x 1” bolt, nut, fender washer, and lock washer to attach the THU900 hanger to the frame.  Use a 2-1/4” clamp to connect the right tail pipe and the hanger.

4)  Install the i.d. end of the left tail pipe to the y-pipe using a 2-1/4” clamp.

5)  As in step 3), install the rear hanger to the frame (drill another hole if one is not present) and clamp to the right tail pipe.  The hanger should be placed about as far back as the hanger in step 3).

6)  You will not need to cut your tail pipes as necessary.  Hold up a tip next to a tail pipe with the desired length of the tip sticking out the rear of the vehicle.  Mark the tail pipe and be sure to account for 3” of the tip that will slide over the tail pipe.  Trim the tail pipe as necessary and repeat as necessary and repeat for the other tail pipe.
 
9)  Install the tips to the tail pipes using 2-1/4” clamps.  

10)  Tighten all clamps, nuts, and bolts.  Check for clearance of all brake and fuel lines, and for clearance of all chassis and frame components.
