   WARNING

   Do not use oil or grease-based lubricants on the insulators. They may cause deterioration of the rubber.
   
   
   
   WARNING

   Oil or grease-based lubricants on the insulators may cause the exhaust hanger insulator to separate from the exhaust hanger bracket during vehicle operation.
   
   
   
   NOTE

   Exhaust fasteners are of a torque prevailing design. Use only new fasteners with the same part number as the original. Torque values must be used as specified during reassembly to make sure of correct retention of exhaust components.
