EXHAUST SYSTEM
GENERAL INFORMATION
The basic exhaust system consists of an engine ex-
haust manifold, exhaust pipe with oxygen sensor, cat-
alytic converter, exhaust heat shield(s), muffler and
exhaust tailpipe (Fig. 1).
The exhaust system uses a single muffler with a
single monolithic-type catalytic converter.
The 4.0L engines use a seal between the engine ex-
haust manifold and exhaust pipe to assure a tight
seal and strain free connections.
The exhaust system must be properly aligned to
prevent stress, leakage and body contact. If the sys-
tem contacts any body panel, it may amplify objec-tionable noises originating from the engine or body.
When inspecting an exhaust system, critically in-
spect for cracked or loose joints, stripped screw or
bolt threads, corrosion damage and worn, cracked or
broken hangers. Replace all components that are
badly corroded or damaged. DO NOT attempt to re-
pair.
When replacement is required, use original equip-
ment parts (or their equivalent). This will assure
proper alignment and provide acceptable exhaust
noise levels.
CAUTION: Avoid application of rust prevention com-
pounds or undercoating materials to exhaust sys-
tem floor pan exhaust heat shields. Light overspray
near the edges is permitted. Application of coating
will result in excessive floor pan temperatures and
objectionable fumes.
CATALYTIC CONVERTER
The stainless steel catalytic converter body is de-
signed to last the life of the vehicle. Excessive heat
can result in bulging or other distortion, but exces-
sive heat will not be the fault of the converter. If un-
burned fuel enters the converter, overheating may
occur. If a converter is heat-damaged, correct the
cause of the damage at the same time the converter
is replaced. Also, inspect all other components of the
exhaust system for heat damage.
Unleaded gasoline must be used to avoid contami-
nating the catalyst core.
EXHAUST HEAT SHIELDS
Exhaust heat shields are needed to protect both the
vehicle and the environment from the high tempera-
tures developed by the catalytic converter. The cata-
lytic converter releases additional heat into the
exhaust system. Under severe operating conditions,
the temperature increases in the area of the con-

misfires or otherwise does not operate at peak effi-
ciency.
DO NOT remove spark plug wires from plugs or by
any other means short out cylinders. Fail

INSTALLATION
(1) Assemble exhaust pipe to manifold and cata-
lytic converter loosely to permit proper alignment of
all parts.
(2) Use a new clamp and tighten the nuts to 61
Nzm (45 ft. lbs.) torque.
(3) Connect the exhaust pipe to the engine exhaust
manifold. Install a new seal between the exhaust
manifold and the exhaust pipe (4.0L engine, only).
Tighten the nuts to 31 Nzm (23 ft. lbs.) torque (Fig.
1).
(3) Install the rear crossmember. Tighten the
crossmember-to-sill bolts to 41 Nzm (30 ft. lbs.)
torque. Remove the support from the transmission.
(4) Coat the oxygen sensor with anti-seize com-
pound. Install the sensor and tighten the nut to 48
Nzm (35 ft. lbs.) torque.
(5) Lower the vehicle.
(6) Start the engine and inspect for exhaust leaks
and exhaust system contact with the body panels.
Adjust the alignment, if needed.
EXHAUST PIPEÐYJ VEHICLES
WARNING: IF TORCHES ARE USED WHEN WORK-
ING ON THE EXHAUST SYSTEM, DO NOT ALLOW
THE FLAME NEAR THE FUEL LINES.
REMOVAL
(1) Raise and support the vehicle.
(2) Saturate the bolts and nuts with heat valve lu-
bricant (Fig. 4). Allow 5 minutes for penetration.(3) Remove the oxygen sensor from the exhaust
pipe (Fig. 2).
(4) Disconnect the exhaust pipe from the engine
exhaust manifold.
(5) Disconnect the exhaust pipe from the catalytic
converter and slide the pipe out of the transmission
torque arm insulator (Fig. 5). Remove the exhaust
pipe.
INSTALLATION
(1) Slide the exhaust pipe into the transmission
torque arm insulator and onto the catalytic converter
(Fig. 5).
(2) Clean the mating surface of the engine exhaust
manifold flange.
(3) Connect the exhaust pipe to the engine exhaust
manifold using new nuts. DO NOT tighten the nuts.
(4) Align the exhaust pipe.
(5) Use a new clamp at the exhaust pipe to cata-
lytic converter connection and tighten the nuts to 61
Nzm (45 ft. lbs.) torque.
(6) Tighten the exhaust pipe-to-engine exhaust
manifold nuts to 31 Nzm (23 ft. lbs.) torque.
(7) Coat the oxygen sensor with anti-seize com-
pound. Install the sensor and tighten the nut to 48
Nzm (35 ft. lbs.) torque.
(8) Lower the vehicle.
(9) Start the engine and inspect for exhaust leaks
and exhaust system contact with the body panels.
Adjust the alignment, if needed.

(3) Heat the catalytic converter and muffler con-
nection with an oxyacetylene torch until the metal
becomes cherry red.
(4) While the metal is still cherry red, twist the
muffler assembly back and forth to separate it from
the catalytic converter.
(5) Disconnect the exhaust pipe from the catalytic
converter (Figs. 3 and 5). If needed, heat up the pipes
to separate.
INSTALLATION
(1) Connect the catalytic converter to the exhaust
pipe (Figs. 3 and 5). Use a new clamp and tighten
the nuts to 61 Nzm (45 ft. lbs.) torque.
(2) Install the muffler onto the catalytic converter
until the alignment tab is inserted into the align-
ment slot.
(3) Install a new clamp at the muffler and catalytic
converter connection (Fig. 6). Tighten the clamp nuts
to 61 Nzm (45 ft. lbs.) torque.
(4) Lower the vehicle.

MUFFLER AND EXHAUST TAILPIPEÐXJ VEHICLES
All original equipment exhaust systems are manu-
factured with the exhaust tailpipe welded to the muf-
fler. Service replacement mufflers and exhaust
tailpipes are either clamped together or welded to-
gether.
WARNING: IF TORCHES ARE USED WHEN WORK-
ING ON THE EXHAUST SYSTEM, DO NOT ALLOW
THE FLAME NEAR THE FUEL LINES.
REMOVAL

(2) Remove the front muffler clamp from the cata-
lytic converter and muffler connection (Fig. 6).
(3) Remove the rear exhaust tailpipe hanger clamp
(Fig. 7) and remove the exhaust tailpipe from the
front exhaust tailpipe hanger (Fig. 8).
(4) Heat the catalytic converter-to-muffler connec-
tion with an oxyacetylene torch until the metal be-
comes cherry red.
