DESCRIPTION




Figure 1 Flex-joint






The toe board three-way catalytic converter (3) is connected to the exhaust manifold by the use of flex joint (4) and a gasket. The outlet connects to the muffler inlet pipe and is secured with a band type clamp (Figure 2).

The exhaust flex-joint coupling (Figure 1) is used to secure the catalytic converter (3) to the exhaust manifold. The flex-joint has four bolts, four flag nuts and a gasket that are separate parts from the exhaust flex-joint. The flex-joint is welded to the catalytic converter.


CAUTION: When servicing, care must be exercised not to dent or bend the bellows or end caps of the flex-joint. Should this occur, the flex-joint will eventually fail and require the catalytic converter be replaced.
