While performing what I think was described as the 2 hour job of replacing the body pads, which I believe took me four days I discovered that my original trip from Georgia to Oregon was nearly a disaster. One of the joints after the mufflers leaked badly and took out the insulation, some of the metal foil cover, a good chunk of the full length body pad and some of the wood on the frame rail.
First the exhaust has been fixed and should not be a problem for now. After removing the charcoal, any suggestions or links for material to replace the insulation and the metal foil cover?
I am thinking about putting in shields around the joints in the exhaust just in case. I also seem to remember heat shields for the fuel tanks that Applied probably has. Any other things I should be considering?
This brake job has gotten to be a lot bigger than expected. Big surprise, no?
Thanks.
