      Comments about Walker Sound Solution - Universal Muffler:

      Muffler fit just like stock. Mount for muffler is wrap around strap muffler is slighty smaller around but still big enough for strap to hold. Great deal fit same as stock muffler reuse stock hanger assembly. I changed the muffler and resonator tail pipe in about a hour in my drive way, on my girlfriends town and country. I was her hero. Thanks advanced very happy with your company as my parts supply.

      Comments about Walker Sound Solution - Universal Muffler:

      Best - Use Walker SoundFX 18559 instead of 18690, an exact match for stainless version 21275 at HALF the ... Our Plymouth van is 190K-15yrs old.
      If insisting on 18690 (good product, poor application), you must 1. Use Walker 41956 extension, 2. Connect the muffler out to the resonator with 2.25 to 2 reducer pipe or bushing, and 3. Extreme shim or modify OEM muffler strap (Walker 36234) A LOT OF EXTRA WORK and you don't save much green!

            Comments about Walker Sound Solution - Universal Muffler:

            The website claimed this is an exact fit for my 2000 Chrysler Grand Voyager. It most certainly is not. Three issues: The overall size is 20% smaller than the original and the mounting band/strap was way too big to hold this securely. Had to make a huge "Jerry-Rig" to hold it in place. Second, the inlet and outlet are not located similarly to the original. Had to torque the exhaust pipe to fit into the offset inlet. Third, the 2.25" outlet is too big to accept the stock tailpipe/resonator. Had to buy a short adapter pipe and lop off 3" of the exhaust outlet to fit the whole thing together. Got to reuse the chopped part of the outlet in the Jerry Rig though ;-) It was most certainly not an "exact fit" but the price was right.

              The online description stated that it would fit a 1998 Chrysler Town and Country mini van. It did not. It was too late to take it off, so I had to rig it.
              I called the store and they couldnt help me.

              Not happy that when purchasing, the employees did not tell me I needed adapters to make this fit. I ordered it with the name and year of my vehicle and was not told it needed extra parts to make it work.

              • Q:

                I am trying to get the Walker unversal muffler 18690 to fit my 97 Grand Voyager. The listing says that I need an adapter (41956) and a (2[f:1/4[in]) clamp(35413). I have no idea what this is. And there is no listing online for a 35413. What gives? Why does buying a replacement muffler have to be an Easter Egg hunt?

                Thanks

                  A:

                  Mufflers does not require the bushings and it requires the gaskets which are attached to the mufflers. To help you in a better manner, can you be more specific on your query please ?
