A particulate filter assembly comprises a tube, an end cap secured to the tube, a filter positioned in the tube, and a conductor. The conductor is configured to conduct filtered exhaust gas from the filter to an outlet defined in the end cap.

Particulate filter assembly

A fixture for interacting with an exhaust system having exhaust pipes and mufflers and an image of the exhaust system, the image having location indicia locating the fixture on the image, displacement data associated with the location indicia indicates an alignment point in space above the image, the fixture comprising at least two stands adapted to lie in a selected positions relative to the image, an alignment mark on the stands, the alignment mark being adapted to align the stands with the location indicia on the image, and at least two modules, a plurality of holders configured differently from one another to be attached to a module, each holder defining a coordinate point that moves relative to the stand and image in response to movement of the module relative to the stand, the plurality of holders including at least one pipe holder configured to receive the exhaust pipe therein to position a central axis of the exhaust pipe at the coordinate point and a muffler holder configured to cooperate with another stand and another module to receive a muffler, and wherein the modules are configured to be coupled to the stand for movement relative to the stand to position the coordinate point of an attached holder at the alignment point in space above the image so that the module is moved to assume a selected position relative to the stand.
