Features:
If you’ve already invested in PPE manifolds and up-pipes for your Duramax, it only makes sense to protect that investment with the PPE Down-Pipe Support Bracket. This simple but essential bracket helps eliminate one of the most common causes of premature exhaust failure, movement. A loose or unsupported down-pipe can shift and vibrate during even normal driving, which over time can lead to cracks, fatigue, or contact damage with the up-pipe bellows. That means expensive repairs and frustrating downtime you could easily avoid. This bracket locks everything into place, providing the extra support your exhaust system needs to stay tight and secure. Fabricated from tough 1/8-inch 304 stainless steel, it’s built to handle heat, vibration, and harsh conditions without rusting or bending. If you’re already under the hood improving performance, this is a smart finishing touch that helps your upgrades last. It’s a small part with a big job, and it does it well.
The PPE 116110510 Down-Pipe Support Bracket is engineered to stabilize the down-pipe on 2001 to 2016 GM Silverado and Sierra 2500HD and 3500HD trucks equipped with the 6.6L Duramax engine. Specifically designed for use with PPE manifolds and up-pipes, this bracket secures the down-pipe to prevent shifting or vibration that could compromise the up-pipe bellow or the pipe itself. Unchecked movement in the exhaust system can cause metal fatigue over time, leading to cracks, separation, or failure under load. This bracket helps eliminate those stress points by providing rigid support where it’s needed most. Constructed from 1/8-inch 304 stainless steel, it resists corrosion and maintains structural integrity even in high-temperature, high-vibration environments. Installation is straightforward and requires no cutting or modification when paired with PPE components. It’s a preventative upgrade that enhances both performance and longevity of your exhaust system, especially under heavy-duty or performance driving conditions.
