  • Will A 4" Tip Fit Over My 4 Inch Exhaust Pipe On My 2015 Chevy Duramax?
  • Since both your existing pipes on the 2015 Chevy Duramax and the tip have a diameter of 4" the tip will not slide over your existing exhaust. Which isn't a problem, all you have to do is get the tip lined up, hold it in place and lay down a couple beads. Then, you can remove whatever is holding it in place and finish up welding. If there's a specific look you are going for you may need to trim back your existing exhaust enough to position your tip how you want. If you are not wanting to...

  • Will a Resonated Exhaust Tip Make my 2011 Infiniti G37 Louder
  • The Bully Round Exhaust Tip part # PM-5104 has a resonated body which will provide a slightly more "crackly" sounding exhaust for your 2011 Infiniti G37 but will not exactly make it any noticeably louder. As long as your exhaust piping is between 1-3/4" to 2-1/2" in diameter then the above exhaust tip will work well for you. To really get the greatest sound output out of your 2011 Infiniti G37 with the 3.7L V6 engine you will want to install a MagnaFlow Exhaust System like part # MF16820....

  • Will Exhaust Set Birch Wood Plywood On Fire
  • If the plywood does not make contact with the exhaust pipe, it might become discolored, perhaps even sooty. It should not catch on fire while on top of the Curt Cargo Carrier, part # C18110. We usually recommend an exhaust tip if you want to make sure there are no unintended consequences while carrying the plywood. You could add something like the MagnaFlow 3" Exhaust Tip - Stainless, Weld-On for 3" Tailpipe, part # MF35180. These get welded on your exhaust pipe to direct the exhaust downward. I...

  • Will this Curt Trailer Hitch # C11317 Work with my Aftermarket Exhaust On my 2010 Subaru WRX
  • The aftermarket exhaust tips should not interfere with you being able to install this Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # C11317. What would cause problems would be if the aftermarket exhaust had mufflers that were larger in diameter than the stock mufflers. The # C11317 does require some minor drilling for installation, but with a decent drill and drill bit you should not have a problem installing this hitch. You may need the following items to complete your...

  • Does Exhaust Tip Have to be Removed to Install a Trailer Hitch on a 2012 Toyota RAV4 Sport
  • From pictures I have seen on the 2012 Toyota RAV4 Sport models, it looks to me that you should not have to necessarily remove the exhaust tip to install the Curt trailer hitch, # C13149. However, it would probably make installation easier and would prevent it from potentially being scratched. There is also an exhaust hanger above the muffler that you can remove the exhaust from to drop it down a little to make installing the hitch easier. Take a look at the video I have included. At about...

  • I have linked the instructions for Curt trailer hitch # C13102 for your 2008 Mercedes GL450. The first 2 steps involve lowering the exhaust. It is actually easy. You just have to remove the metal muffler hangers from the rubber hangers (4 total). On some models you would also have to remove the exhaust tips to lower the exhaust. There are screws holding on the tips that would have to be removed in order to slide off the exhaust tips. I have linked the instructions to the right. You mentioned...

  • Will Changing the Exhaust Tip Give a Vehicle More Speed or Power
  • No, using an exhaust tip like the 4" MagnaFlow # MF35212 can only change the sound of your vehicle. So it may sound like it is more powerful but it doesn't change the performance of your vehicle. If you are wanting to gain more speed/power then you will need a performance tuner or change engine components. If you let me know what the year/make/model of your vehicle is then I can recommend some products for you to enhance the performance of your vehicle.

  • Will Pilot Bully Resonating Exhaust Tip Add Noticeable Sound Change?
  • The Bully Round Resonated Bolt-on Exhaust Tip, 3-1/4" Round, 9" Long # PM-5104 is designed specifically to make your vehicle sound noticeable. It works like a megaphone to amplify the sound output and changes the tone as it resonates in the larger diameter tube. It also is stainless steel so it will have a clean look and be corrosion resistant. It will fit 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/2 inch diameter pipes.

  • Where is the Curt Trailer Hitch Positioned on a 2009 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8
  • We have not yet had the opportunity to install the Curt trailer hitch # 11103 on a 2009 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8, so we do not have any pictures. However, in the instructions which I have linked for you, there is a diagram that shows the position of the hitch. The receiver will be located in between the two exhaust tips, a little higher than the centerline of the tips. If you plan to tow, the hitch comes with a ball mount, pin and clip. For a ball you can use # 19256 for 1-7/8 inch diameter,...

  • Does The Exhaust Have to Be Lowered When Installing Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver On 2022 Toyota RAV4?
  • The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13416 can be installed on your 2022 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid XLE without having to lower the exhaust. It will be easier to lift it into place with a 2nd set of hands to get around one of the exhaust tips and then the second. I recommend using a Nylon Brush # 814092 to clean out the threads on the frame nuts to prevent the chances of damaging the hardware during installation. I recommend installing the Curt Vehicle Wiring Harness # C56434 when you install the...

You can compare this to what you have to see if the exhaust will need to be lowered or not.
