To avoid burns, it is recommended to start work after the exhaust system has cooled down.
Using a metal brush, clean the threads of the two studs in the connection of the flanges of the pipes of the additional and main mufflers.
On one side of the main muffler a connecting pipe is welded, on the other - an exhaust pipe.
The main muffler with pipes assembled is replaced.
Wet the threaded part of the studs with a penetrating liquid, for example Liquid WRENCH by GANK.
Using a 14 mm socket, unscrew the two nuts securing the flanges of the additional and main muffler pipes.
We move the flange of the main muffler pipe back, overcoming the resistance of the suspension cushions of the exhaust system.
We remove the sealing gasket.
Using your hand or a mounting blade, pry the front suspension cushion of the main muffler and remove the muffler bracket from the cushion opening.
We remove the muffler brackets from the holes in the rear suspension cushions..
and remove the main muffler.
If the rubber cushions have lost their elasticity or have tears, they should be replaced.
We install a new gasket in the connection of the flanges of the pipes of the main and additional mufflers.
We install the main muffler in the reverse order, so that when rocking it by hand within the elastic limits of the suspension, the exhaust system elements do not touch the body and fuel tank.
