EXHAUST PIPE (for Long Wheelbase) INSTALLATION


  1. INSTALL EXHAUST PIPE ASSEMBLY TAIL


    1. Connect the exhaust pipe supports, and install the exhaust pipe assembly tail.

  2. INSTALL EXHAUST PIPE SUB-ASSEMBLY FRONT NO.1


    1. Install a new gasket and exhaust pipe sub-assembly front No.1 with the 3 bolts.

      Torque:
      62 N*m  { 632 kgf*cm, 46 ft.*lbf }

    2. Tighten the clamp bolt, and install the exhaust pipe support bracket No.1 to the exhaust pipe sub-assembly front No.1.

  3. INSTALL EXHAUST PIPE SUB-ASSEMBLY FRONT NO.2


    1. A003DPX

      Inspect the compression spring.


      1. Using vernier calipers, measure the free length of the compression springs.

        Minimum length
        40.5 mm (1.594 in.)

        Tech Tips

        If the free length is less than the minimum, replace the compression spring.

    2. A003FTXE05

      Install the gasket.


      1. Fully insert a new gasket to the exhaust pipe sub-assembly front No.1 by hand.

      2. Using a wooden block, uniformly strike the gasket so that the gasket and exhaust pipe sub-assembly front No.1 are properly fit.

        Note


        • Be careful with the installation direction of the gasket.

        • Do not damage the outer face.

        • Do not reuse the gasket.

        • To ensure a proper seal, do not use the exhaust pipe sub-assembly front No.2 to force the gasket onto the exhaust pipe sub-assembly front No.1.

    3. Connect the exhaust pipe support, and install a new gasket and the exhaust pipe sub-assembly front No.2 with the 4 bolts, 2 nuts, and 2 compression springs.

      Torque:
      Exhaust pipe sub-assembly front No.1 side
      43 N*m  { 438 kgf*cm, 32 ft.*lbf }
      Exhaust pipe assembly tail side
      48 N*m  { 489 kgf*cm, 35 ft.*lbf }

      Note

      After installation, check that the clearance is almost same at any point between the flanges of the exhaust pipe sub-assembly front No.2 and exhaust pipe sub-assembly front No.1.
