Default TRD Exhaust Walkthrough/Instructions

I searched but I couldn't find any... I guess it's pretty basic then right?

Install is about as straight forward and easy as it gets. Remove two bolts and remove old muffler from rubber hangers, put new one on rubber hangers and replace bolts, about a 10 minute install.

Save yourself some time by giving the threads on the bolts a good shot of WD40 or some other penetrating fluid. Also spray the exhaust hangers right before you take them off...it will make removal much easier

Yep. WD40 is the best

I am going to do a write up as soon as I get the time to. I installed mine maybe two weeks ago and it took me(one man) 40mins to do it. I'll write the how-to after work.

wow.. 40 min.. ? it should only really take like 5min.. 10 at most... the hangers are the only pain.. be carefull with using any type of lubricant on the hangers.... while it does make it easier to remove the muffler , it may cause the rubber to disolve... i used silicone grease on the rubber to make it easier to remove and install... and found that between the heat and the lubricant.,. it sort of made the rubber slightly desolve...

yup, quick and painless. if you need some extra umph with the hangers, lube them up and bust out some large channel locks to squeeze (one end on the hanger and one on the rubber) and it slides right off
