Default Installing Fuel Moto Jackpots

Guys, I may be installing my new Jackpots tomorrow, after getting my "brake switch recall" done.

Do the Jackpots come with installation instructions? Also, do they come with new mounting clamps or do I have to buy some (if so, what size do I need)?

I'm going to try to take some before/after video, so guys can compare the stock sound versus the "new" sound. I know that Jackpot demo's are about as scarce as hen's teeth.

Thanks for any help, guys.

Piece of cake. They come with everything you need, and they mount to the same places on the bike as the OEM ones did.

By the way, which JP's did you get? I have the 3.5's on my Ultra and the 4's on my FLHP, love em both but like the 4" WAY better!

I got the 4" Dyno Tuned slash down's, like on your Ultra. By the way, why do you prefer the 4" Jackpot's?

By the way, your Ultra is a beauty!

I reused the muffler clamps, make sure you get it seated far enough onto the pipe, it was an easy job.

Thanks for the tip. I may mark the stock muffler with a magic marker before I remove it, so I can see how far in I need to go with the new mufflers.

I have read that the stock HD muffler clamps are "single use only" clamps, so I'm prepared to buy a new set of stainless steel clamps, if needed.

Whatever you've heard is a misled info, I have reused my muffler clamps many times, and I don't see any reason why I have replace it, ever. Unless, it's broken!

Whatever he heard is the correct info. The clamps are single usage. At least that is the official HD recommendation.

That said, I agree that they can be used over many times. I've never replaced one and I've had my pipes off and on several times. I do have some spares on hand though if I ever need them. My philosophy is use them until you have a leak and then replace them when necessary.

I had to use my original clamps as the Jack's didn't come with any and no instructions were included....but then I didn't need any, couldn't be any easier.
