Default Exhaust gap

I hope some body can help me on this.....After installing a new set of Jackpot head pipes on a 2011 Ultra,I now have a noticeable gap with the heat shields where the CAT was located. There is nothing there to push the shield up to the next one. Is there any fix for this???

Loosen all your bolts and try shifting it around. Call FM and ask for tips

It is all in the orientation of the heat shields. I would start with loosening the shields slightly, first adjust the rear primary shield into place and make sure it is turned slightly outward, then go to the rear heat shield and get it aligned, when it is adjusted correctly the leading edge will be about lined up with the O2 sensor bung you can see on the inside. Then move the front shield into place. Getting all of the gaps and and shields aligned can take some patience, but rest assured everything will fit correctly and if you have any questions you are welcome to contact us for assistance.
