As the brakes were off and I still had to fit new discs and pads I put those on. Brembo discs with Ferodo DS2500 pads.
After that it was time to fit the exhaust. I got a complete stainless steel Magnex exhaust for an 2.9 XR4x4 off eBay.
First I fitted the centre and rear silencers so it was clear how the downpipes needed to be made.
Together with the Magnex exhaust I got a new set of 2.9 12v downpipes so I could use those to make 24v downpipes that fit the Magnex system. Halfway the right downpipe I put an extra flange to be able to remove the exhaust more easily if needed.
Then I fitted all exhaust clamps and the exhaust was ready.
I also had to adapt the engine loom. I removed the tape from the part where the 3 connectors needed to be behind the battery.
Afterwards I taped it back in so it looked like a standard Sierra 24v loom.
Swapped the 12v loom for the 24v loom and fitted the new K&N filter. 24v conversion finished.
