exhaust product at home, be warned that pleasure car or light duty
truck/van “bumper” jacks are intended for emergency use only. The
use of frame contact jack stands in conjunction with a floor jack as
main support is highly recommended to minimize accidental dropping of a
vehicle while the installation proceeds.

NOTE: This is a split rear exit dual kit for a passenger
vehicle. Exhaust gasses can get sucked into the vehicle through
the rear door or window if the vehicle has a leak in a seal. It
is of vital importance that the converters are on the vehicle and
functioning properly, and that there are no leaks in either the window
or the door at the rear of the vehicle. You could be putting your
life at risk operating a vehicle without converters with this system,
or on a vehicle that has a leak in the rear due to the possibility of
asphyxiation.
HARDWARE KIT:
3) fender washers
1) 5/16” lock washer
1) 5/16” nut
8) 2-1/4” clamps
2) 5/16” lag screws
1) 5/16” x 1” bolts
1) cable tie
3) THU900 hangers--360 swinger-BR91930
2) muffler tips--stainless or painted
1) right tail pipe
1) y-pipe
1) left tail pipe
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 after the converter. You may
remove the O.E. hangers that are on the vehicle.
2) Install the y-pipe to the converter using a 2-1/4”
clamp. Locate or drill a 5/16” hole in the frame above the
y-pipe. Install a THU900 swinger hanger to the frame using a
5/16” x 1” bolt, nut, lock washer and fender washer. Use a 2-1/4”
clamp to attach the hanger and the y-pipe.
3) 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. Both tail
pipes have 5 bends, the right tail pipe has the shortest distance from
the inlet to the first bend. Install a THU900 360 swinger hanger
to the frame near where the rear O.E. hanger was (a little behind where
it was at). Use an existing bolt hole if possible, or drill a
1/4” hole in the frame after the rear axle but before where the tips
will be (along the side of the frame is probably the best location).
Use a lag screw and fender washer to attach the THU900 hanger to the
frame. You may need to bend the hanger for a proper fit
(especially if you mount on the bottom of the frame), and be sure that
you give enough room for the tip to clear the bumper. 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). A cable tie has been included to tie the brake and
fuel lines off for clearance of the tail pipes.
6) You may 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 if desired and repeat for the other tail
pipe.
7) Install the tips to the tail pipes using 2-1/4” clamps.
8) Tighten all clamps, nuts, and bolts. Check for clearance
of all brake and fuel lines, and for clearance of all chassis and frame
components.
