I am picking up a set of Trex pipes tomorrow and I am currious how they mount? I sold my stock pipes and the starter bracket and trans bracket went with. Am I going to need brackets? Bountyhunter?
This link has everything you need to know WRT the installation:https://www.hdforums.com/m_279878/tm.htm . The following postingshelped me with the installation: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Electra Geezer -> RE: T-Rex 3" Dual Straights (2/15/2006 12:41:09 AM)

(1) 4 bolts and 4 washers. 2 bolts and 2 washers per muffler to hang the mufflers from the stock bracket under the bags. [/b] (2) 1 bolt and 1 nut to hold the rear pipe to the new bracket that goes on the starter after you remove the stock bracket. There are 2 bolts that hold the starter in place and the stock bracket. Pull the bolts out about 1 inch and remove the stock bracket. Install the new bracket and reinstall the 2 bolts. [/b] (3) 2 - 1/4" thick spacers are used to move the right side floorboard further away from the frame allowing clearance for the front pipe.[/b] (4) The clamp. I don't have a clue...
Easier to install than to taking off the stock system (dumpster). I discarded the starter/tranny brackets and reversed the lock washer on the bottom rear board bracket. Trimmed the lower push pin on the left side cover a little, no problem. [/b]Then just 2 nuts to the manifold and 2 bolts to the rear mount, that's it. Best to get 4 new manifold nuts and trash the old ones. Been smiling ever since, these pipes ROCK!
