All vehicles
- With the vehicle in NEUTRAL, position it on a hoist. For additional information, refer to JACKING AND LIFTING article.
- Loosen all fasteners joining the exhaust system components.
- If any of the Torca® clamps are loosened, note the orientation of the Torca® clamp, grind the spot weld and remove the old Torca® clamp.
- Install a new Torca® clamp in the same orientation as the original and spot weld into place.
- Beginning at the rear of the vehicle, the exhaust system should be aligned to establish the maximum clearance to its surrounding components. Make sure all fit pipes are pushed all the way into the preceding pipe and the pipe notches are fully seated and correctly lined up with the tabs.
NOTE:
New Torca® clamps and exhaust Y-pipe-to-exhaust manifold nuts must be installed when loosened.
- Start the engine and check the exhaust system for leaks.
