NOTE:  THE EXTENSION PIPE WILL FIT THE LONGER WHEEL BASE TRUCKS WITHOUT CUTTING.  ON ALL OTHER VEHICLES THE EXTENSION PIPE WILL NEED TO BE CUT FROM THE 3" O.D. END (THE END THAT IS NOT SHRUNK) AS NECESSARY.

2)  SLIP THE FRONT PIPE INTO PLACE.  WITH THE TAIL PIPE IN THE REAR OF THE MUFFLER, HOLD UP THE MUFFLER AND TAIL PIPE IN A POSITION THAT CLEARS ALL CHASSIS COMPONENTS.  MARK THE FRONT PIPE.  MAKE SURE TO ACCOUNT FOR AT LEAST 2" OF THE PIPE TO GO INTO THE MUFFLER.  CUT THE FRONT PIPE.

6)  INSTALL THE OVER THE AXLE SECTION OF THE TAIL PIPE USING A 3" CLAMP TO THE OUTLET OF THE MUFFLER.  THE INLET OF THE OVER THE AXLE TAIL PIPE HAS A 24 DEGREE BEND, THE OUTLET A 74 DEGREE BEND.

7)  INSTALL A 3” WELDED HANGER CLAMP TO THE O..E. RUBBER MOUNT ABOVE THE OVER THE AXLE SECTION OF THE TAIL PIPE AFTER THE MUFFLER AND SLIDE THE CLAMP OVER THE PIPE.   NOTE:  THERE ARE TWO O.E. RUBBER MOUNTS.  THIS HANGER FITS BEST IN THE REAR MOST OF THE TWO MOUNTS (ABOUT 2” FURTHER BACK).
