Looking at adding one to my rig..1998 30ft IB, w/gen exhaust between the dr. side window and the kitchen window, mid rig.

Problem is, my chrome ex. pipe is 2 1/4 in. at the end--the end being a rolled 'lip' about 1/8 in width, bigger than the 2 ?/?in. inside pipe. Looking at the installation videos, it looks like they are expecting a 'straight' exhaust pipe end, and I don't see a way to adapt mine to their provided bushings, etc.

I really don't want to cut the lip off, as I can't do it myself, and would have to take the whole RV somewhere to get it done. Any suggestions on how to adapt what I have to the kit? From the information I see, I have to purchase an additional size part as there isn't one for even a 2in pipe. How will that rolled lip impact the ability of the spacers/bushings to accommodate the mounting of the upright portion?

Also, the height of the kit says it's for 10 ft. and I was wondering if other LD owners had added an extension to the top? That's pretty close to barely being above roof top.

I have the older Emerald, and was hoping that the claim that it will also help dampen the noise somewhat--anyone have experience with the kit used on the older Emerald??

Thanks for response, What I decided to do is install a 12 volt rear air system into my outside compartment area and tie into my front system. Install my control switches next to my thermostat . Put a 3 way splitter on my central heater vents. I have rear air will traveling down the road. Now in remote areas you have no air, unless you want to carry a portable inexpensive unit.
