PacBrake 4" Exhaust Adapter
Description
9.9 times out of 10, the second we get our hands on the keys to our new (to us) truck, the first thing we do, is start planning our upgrades. Factory might work for some folk, but not us, we can build it better. If you're towing or live in areas with challenging terrain and elevation changes, you may look at installing an exhaust brake. If you are also the type that upgrades your exhaust, you may find yourself trying to fabricate a solution to mate a 4-inch exhaust to an exhaust brake. What you need, is this PacBrake 4-inch exhaust brake adapter. It performs the exact task it's named after.When installing an exhaust brake there are two different mounting configurations. One of the most typical exhaust brake installation is known as an inline mount. For this type of installation, adapters are required to seal the airflow from the exhaust brake to the exhaust pipe. They are mounted on either side of the brake and clamped into place.
The second type of exhaust brake, most often found on 2003 and newer Dodge vehicles, are exceptions as they are installed using a direct mount configuration, in which the exhaust brake is mounted directly to the turbo. This type of installation does not require adapters as one side of the brake attaches directly to the turbocharger and the other side directly to the exhaust pipe.
Pacbrake’s exhaust brake adapters feature machined flanges so that they are perfectly matched when connected to the exhaust brake housing. The adapters, combined with the V-Clamps (not included), ensure that there is a perfect air tight seal between all exhaust brake joints.
About PacBrake
PACBRAKE EXHAUST BRAKES
Pacbrake is a manufacturing company based out of Langley, British Columbia that began operations in 1961, specializing in exhaust and engine brakes for commercial truckers, loggers, and the military. Today, their expertise still lies on exhaust braking solutions, but it goes well beyond this and into numerous other vehicle upgrades such as air suspension, air compressors, complete air management solutions, and so much more.
PACBRAKE EXHAUST BRAKESDiesel Power Products is proud to offer the complete line of Pacbrake PRXB Exhaust Brakes for Cummins, Duramax and Powerstroke diesels. At the time of their release, the PRXB line of brakes was unlike any other, and still maintains superiority over many alternatives to this day. So what does PRXB mean and how does it work? PRXB stands for "Pressure Release Exhaust Brake." Basically, all exhaust brakes have to release a certain amount of exhaust, otherwise it would cause excessive backpressure to the engine and cause damage. However, PRXB's are unique in that they have a variable release so that as RPM's slow down, so does the release of exhaust, equating to better retarding power at lower RPM's. If you tow with your diesel and don't have an exhaust brake, you're simply missing out on the peace of mind and safety that it delivers. Pacbrake's kits come complete, even torque converter lockup controllers when applicable, exhaust adapters for aftermarket oversized exhaust, and more.
