Jim Wolf Cam testing for the VQ37VHR -- Results inside!

SurfDog

Exhaust hanger install was not as straight forward as I’d hoped.

Install manual looks like this, but is very misleading. For the pipes to go on right you have to have the pipes on the opposite side from shown (ie the hanger attaches to the top pipe not the bottom one) if you swap the pipes to match the picture they won’t fit around the footbox



I opted to weld (not self tap screw) the hangers on after modding them to fit the rest of the hardware

I used bits of both the old and new hanger bracket kit to fiddle together a working setup.

The lower brackets (modded to fit the new rubber shock mounts)

The new (upgraded) rubber bushings

The old (longer) upper mounts which I cut and re-welded to a better (custom?) fit on my exhaust.

As usual I put it together incorrectly 3times before finding the right fit but in my defense the instructions were very misleading. Use my photos for a better idea of how it should go! (Assuming same exhaust and coyote manifold.)
