How to Choose the Correct Size
The Sentinel Exhaust Brake lineup is sized by exhaust pipe diameter.
Choose the Custom Sentinel Exhaust Brake if your exhaust pipe measures different from inlet to outlet at the installation location. All Sentinel exhaust brakes share the same core features and performance characteristics—the only difference between sizes is the exhaust diameter they are designed to fit.
If you’re unsure of your exhaust size, Bundy Motors can help confirm fitment before ordering.
