Exhausting Questions

[MacD]

Hello
Fitting a new exhaust to my traveller.
Question 1. Should I use exhaust assembly paste to help seal the joints?
Question 2.Does the handbrake cable sit above or below the exhaust at the tail-end ?
Thanks
MacD

use paste yes
and the cable is below i believe
make sure the extra piece of tubing is by gthe exhaust area to stop burning the outer cable

A 'wipe' of paste if you must .

A small amount of paste to the manifold joint, but the sections of pipe slot together without any paste.

And the cable sits underneath?

You need paste, as the mating parts are not machined, and even if they were doubt the quality would allow a good fit.

Cable above on mine - but it's not a standard exhaust...

Support the pipe in front of the silencer on a jack then wind it up onto the manifold, adjust the fit and then fit the manifold clamp
