Changed my oil the other day and burned my arm on the exhaust. Shouldnt there be heat sheilds on the converters? Looks to be missing heat sheilds. Anyone know if I am missing mine?

They can also be used to separate the cat(s) from dry grass and other debris under the vehicle; my old F250 had one, although I think it was technically part of the cat.

That was my concern. I guess these trucks sit up high enough that it probably wont catch grass on fire.
Pretty sure heat shields are meant to protect the vehicle not the owner.
LOL, ya I think your right. I was in a hurry and didnt let it cool down very much.I feel bad for those 10 minute oil change guys.
Next time I will give it a chance to cool down before I start draining it.
