INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR 2011+ F-150 3.5L V6

ECOBOOST 3.5” CATBACK EXHAUST

Thanks for purchasing A Stainless Works 3.5” Catback exhaust for your 2011+ F-150

Ecoboost. We have gone to great pains to make sure that our exhaust systems fit and

sound great. Please follow these steps to ensure that your installation goes as planned.

1. Stainless Works recommends the use of Hi-Temp RTV sensor safe silicon gasket

maker as an option to or in conjunction with the use of factory gaskets. The

recommended Oxygen Sensor Safe RTV is either Valco All-in-One Aluminum or

Permatex Copper P/N 101BR available at NAPA, Autozone and other retailers.

2. Disconnect the battery before starting work on the exhaust system for your

vehicle. Reconnect the battery when the job is completed.

3. Your exhaust system can be installed by a weekend warrior but the use of a lift is

recommended for ease of installation. If using a jack, the vehicle must be placed

on a level hard surface and jack stands are required for safety reasons.

4. You will assemble the components together as specified below, but only snug the

clamps as you move along from front to back. After aligning all the components

in the vehicle, you will tighten all the clamps working from front to back of the

vehicle.

5. Disconnect battery.

6. Raise and support vehicle.

7. Unbolt exhaust at 2-bolt flange (2) 10 mm bolts.

8. Unbolt first hanger on exhaust (2) 8 mm bolts.

9. Remove exhaust from hangers and remove from vehicle.
