Aftermarket Exhaust Question?
A question I have for others that have installed aftermarket systems is; I noticed a rubber hose (on the passenger side) is very close to the over the axle pipe and was wondering 1) What is this rubber hose and 2) is an inch clearance from this hose adequate or should I look at insulating around it somehow?
Thanks,
John

Hose OK?
I know there have been many aftermarket exhaust installed on the C6 that someone must know theanswer to this question:
I noticed a rubber hose (on the passenger side) is very close to the over the axle pipe and was wondering; (marked 5/8" (looks like a heater core hose) and connects to what appears to be a solenoid) is an inch clearance from this hose to the over the axle exhaust pipe adequate or should I look at insulating around it somehow?
Thanks,
John

The only thing i can see on mine is....
I had it up in the air, and took a look.
The ONLY 'hoses' near the top of the transaxel in the area where the Bullets go up and over the axel are the emergency brake cables. They run down the center, and right above the center of the trans, they go one to the left, and one to the right.
These are about 1/2" dia. They have cables inside them. They operatate the emergency brake.
There is literally NOTHING else in that area.
