Exhaust System Installation
2004-06 Chevrolet SSR
PN 14254 / PN 14255
TOOLS NEEDED: Safety glasses, 15 mm wrench or deep socket, 1/2” wrench or deep socket,
Torque wrench, saw or cutting wheel, chain-style pipe cutter, soapy water solution, ruler and
black marking pen
FIG. A
All Torca clamps should be tightened using a
properly calibrated Torque Wrench. Using an air
impact gun will damage the clamp and reduce its
ability to effectively seal the joint. It may also cause
the joint to separate thereby causing damage to
your exhaust system and your vehicle.
INSTALLATION NOTE:
Be sure to apply the provided anti-seize lubricant
to all bolts, fasteners and clamps. A pouch is
included with the hardware kit. Apply the supplied
anti-seize lubricant to the threads ONLY of all
TORCA band clamps. Failure to follow this
procedure can cause the nuts to seize on clamps
and potentially damage threads. WARNING: Be
sure to thoroughly clean hands after use. Antiseize lubricant will tarnish stainless steel parts.
CAUTION: Prior to installation, be sure your vehicle
is parked on a level surface, and the exhaust
system is cool. For safety purposes and ease of
installation, we urge you to take your vehicle to a
qualified service center or muffler installer that
employs the use of a lift.
