Can anyone recommend a NAPA or LORDCO part that worked for them?
Many Thanks

In my experience, the muffler fails frequently because it's at an angle and unless you drive some distance, the muffler gets a pool of condensation that stays at the low point and causes rust. The last time I had a generic glass pack installed - they don't rust out normally and I like the sound.

im running 2" flowtech raptor muffler. it was a tight fit but it has a decent sound but u also need to know as of right now i cut the cat off and am running 2" from the mid pipe to right before the rear axle. i'll put a cat on it when it comes time for new inspection stickers...... (maybe)

Bosal P/N 280-157 available by special order from NAPA. Full retail is $114 plus shipping. Looks right by the pictures, but I haven't used it. Their quality on other stuff is top-notch, though.
Fasteddy's advice is occasionally sound...

I got a Bosal on my 2.6L part# 281-837 after the accident and quality is A+. It is a direct bolt on and it sounds just like the original. I got pictures but I have to find where to host them.
I just need to drill the little pin hole for condensation.
