Front Exhaust Pipe

WARNING: Before removing or inspecting the exhaust system, ensure that the exhaust system is cool.

REMOVAL
1. Remove the front exhaust pipe-to-catalytic converter mounting bolts.






2. Remove the front exhaust pipe clamp bolt and remove the exhaust manifold-to-front exhaust pipe mounting nuts.

INSTALLATION
Installation is the reverse of removal, noting the following
a. Temporarily install the front exhaust pipe, the catalytic converter assembly, the center exhaust pipe, and the main muffler, in that order.
b. Install the rubber hangers so that they are identical (left and right) in length.
c. Tighten the parts securely, and then confirm that there is no interference with any body components.
