Prior to installation, be sure your vehicle is parked on a level surface and the exhaust system is cool. For safety
purposes and ease of installation, we urge you to take your vehicle to a qualified service center or muffler installer
that employs the use of a lift. Be sure the exhaust system is cool before beginning the removal process. Safety glasses
should be worn at all times.
INSTALLATION NOTE: Be sure to apply the anti-seize lubricant that has been provided to all bolts, fasteners and
clamps. A pouch with anti-seize lubricant is included with the hardware kit. Apply the supplied anti-seize lubricant to
the threads ONLY of all TORCA band clamps. Failure to follow this procedure can cause the nuts to seize on clamps
and potentially damage threads. WARNING: Be sure to thoroughly clean hands after use. Anti-seize lubricant will
tarnish stainless steel parts.
All Torca clamps should be tightened using a properly calibrated Torque Wrench. Using an air impact gun will
damage the clamp and reduce its ability to effectively seal the joint. It may also cause the joint to separate thereby
causing damage to your exhaust system and your vehicle.
