Muffler mounting R75/5
Muffler mounting R75/5
The right muffler fits fine with no issues but I’ve hit a snag with the left muffler attaching to frame.
The weld on the muffler bracket seems to be blocking the muffler from being able to align with the two threaded holes on the frame. Yet I don’t recall any problems disassembling that part.
Do I have the mufflers orientated correctly. I appreciate any suggestions. Thanks

Re: Muffler mounting R75/5
Something is amiss as I agree with Kurt the left side is hanging a lot lower than it should. I hate to say it but I would pull the whole shooting match apart headers off the heads, and reassemble it. Or, at least inspect the header pipes and mounts to see if they are all lined up properly. Good luck. St.

Re: Muffler mounting R75/5
The mufflers have a slight bend either upward or downward depending on which side they are mounted on. I mounted with a downward bend. Is this correct? Link to photo above.
Thanks
