  2. INSTALL EXHAUST PIPE DAMPER 
    1. Install the exhaust pipe damper to the tail exhaust pipe assembly with the 2 bolts.

      Torque: 19 N*m (194 kgf*cm, 14 ft.*lbf) 

  3. INSTALL FRONT EXHAUST PIPE SUB-ASSEMBLY 
    1. Using a vernier caliper, measure the free length of the compression spring.

      Minimum length

      41.5 mm (1.63 in.)
