Side Pipe Adjustments

[Railroad]

I have the body sitting pretty good on the chassis. I bolted the side pipes on with gaskets. The drivers side is pretty good up and down, only a slight angle, maybe 1/8" from front to rear.
The passenger side has a 1" increase in distance from the body, front to rear.
I am considering adding the washers under the drivers side motor mount. I need a little more clearance on the foot box. I think I can get the drivers side pipe parallel to the body.
I looked at Mark's exhaust wedges. His selections show various increments of inches.
Is this the amount of run out it corrects for?
Also, can I run the wedges and or side pipes with hi temp rtv?
If not, I guess a gasket on both sides of the wedge.

RR,

The wedges are the way to go. I use the copper rtv with no issues. Yes, it is the amount of the runout it corrects. You can also drop down to 5/16 bolt to get a little more wiggle room up and down.

X3 on the wedges. They are available in different thicknesses and can be stacked to achieve the proper alignment.

Thanks for the replies and tips. I really like the 5/16" bolt to get some wiggle. Will pick up a tube of copper rtv and get to work.
I am trying to get licensed by the end of the year or early next year, Then to paint.
