## for Preparation Click here

1. INSTALL FRONT EXHAUST PIPE ASSEMBLY

1. Using a vernier caliper, measure the free length of the compression spring.

   Minimum length:
     40 mm (1.57 in.)
   If the length is less than the minimum replace the compression spring.

1. Install the front pipe to the pipe support.

1. Install a new gasket to the outlet pipe.

   HINT:
     Using a plasti-faced hammer, uniformly strike the gasket so that the gasket and outlet pipe are properly fit.

   NOTICE:
   1. Be careful with the installation direction of the gasket.
   2. Do not reuse the gasket.
   3. To ensure a proper seal, do not use the front pipe to force the gasket onto the outlet pipe.

1. Install the front pipe with the 2 compression springs and 2 bolts. Alternately tighten the bolts in several passes.

   Torque:
     43 N*m{ 438 kgf*cm , 32 ft.*lbf }

2. INSTALL HEATED OXYGEN SENSOR (for Unleaded Gasoline Specification Vehicle)

1. 2WD:
   Using SST, install the sensor.

   SST
     09224-00010

   Torque:
     44 N*m{ 449 kgf*cm , 32 ft.*lbf } for use with SST
     40 N*m{ 408 kgf*cm , 30 ft.*lbf }

   HINT:
     Use a torque wrench with a fulcrum length of 30 cm (11.81 in.).

1. Connect the sensor connector.

1. 4WD:
   Using SST, install the sensor.

   SST
     09224-00010

   Torque:
     44 N*m{ 449 kgf*cm , 32 ft.*lbf }
     40 N*m{ 408 kgf*cm , 30 ft.*lbf } for use with SST

   HINT:
     Use a torque wrench with a fulcrum length of 30 cm (11.81 in.).

1. Install the sensor wire to the clamp.

1. Connect the sensor connector.

3. INSTALL AIR FUEL RATIO SENSOR (for Unleaded Gasoline Specification Vehicle)

1. Using SST, install the sensor.

   SST
     09224-00010

   Torque:
     44 N*m{ 449 kgf*cm , 32 ft.*lbf }
     40 N*m{ 408 kgf*cm , 30 ft.*lbf } for use with SST

   HINT:
     Use a torque wrench with a fulcrum length of 30 cm (11.81 in.).

1. Attach the 3 wire clamps to the vehicle body.

1. Connect the sensor connector.

4. INSTALL CENTER EXHAUST PIPE ASSEMBLY

1. Install the center pipe to the 3 pipe supports.

1. Install a new gasket and the center pipe to the front pipe with the 2 bolts and 2 nuts. Alternately tighten the bolts in several passes.

   Torque:
     48 N*m{ 489 kgf*cm , 35 ft.*lbf }

   NOTICE:
     Do not reuse the gasket.

5. INSTALL TAILPIPE ASSEMBLY

1. Install the tailpipe to the pipe support.

1. Install a new gasket and the tailpipe to the center pipe with the 2 bolts and 2 nuts. Alternately tighten the bolts in several passes.

   Torque:
     48 N*m{ 489 kgf*cm , 35 ft.*lbf }

   NOTICE:
     Do not reuse the gasket.

6. CONNECT CABLE TO NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL

7. PERFORM INITIALIZATION

1. Perform initialization (Click here ).

   NOTICE:
     Certain systems need to be initialized after disconnecting and reconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.

8. CHECK FOR EXHAUST GAS LEAKS

If gas is leaking, tighten the problem areas to stop the leak. Replace damaged parts as necessary.
