racing beat exhaust install

nice!

I got the same exhaust 8 months ago or so. I took off the tow hook and the exhaust i got had a bracket on the right side. I had to cut that off since it was tearing apart the rear bumper plastic. I also noticed that the exhaust hanger bushings allowed the exhaust to move around a lot. I bought some polyurethane exhaust hangers for about 5 bucks each and put those on. I used wd40 to squeeze the bushing on the hanger. now the exhaust doesnt move for shit. I very happy with it and i cant wait to finish my exhaust now that i have my power FC.

hopefully I can get a sound clip next week.

BTW much easier to install than my buddy's ZR2 Blazer. He has a made a custom exhaust since their are no aftermarket exhaust for the ZR2 package. We spent all night just getting the factory exhaust off. Required removing a transmission support and tire.

One stupid nut on the manifold and stupid (for servicing) one piece exhaust to the muffler slowed us way down.
