Does anyone have pictures of the underside of their 4runner? I am trying to see what the stock exhaust is supposed to look like. I dont know if my exhaust is stock or aftermarket.

Thanks man! This exactly what has happened to me except in this case its a stock exhaust from toyota. The front end that is supposed to connect to the cat is too long and there is a curve in it. I am going to take pics for all to see. But for now i guess i am hacksawing too.

Here are pics of my old exhaust side by side to the new exhaust I got from toyota:

I am thinking at this point i will take both to an exhaust shop and make some sense of my mess.

No problem. Why a new stock exhaust. For the same money, you could have a bad ass soundin 4runner and new tailpape. I paid 100 for my Vortex and 60 bucks to have it installed and a new 2 1/4 tailpipe bent up. Very well worth it in my opinion. But its whatever ur tastes are.

Yea, I agree with you. I was figuring 81 dollars from toyota and this would be a done deal. Go figure that toyota would mess up there own exhaust. I considered the performance exhaust but I figured why waste money trying to make the 3.0 run any faster. I figured I save my money for the suspension, tires and stuff I really could get my moneys worth with. But, now after i have to take the exhaust to the shop to have them fix toyotas errors, I minds well have had them make one. Lesson learned. I will post pics of the corrected exhaust when i get it back.
