I have an '01 4Runner and my muffler is rusted out by the pipes are still good. I would like to just buy something to bolt or weld in place without buying a complete exhaust. I really don't want anything loud, I looked up Borla but they don't even make anything for 4Runners newer than 2000. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!

well, u could take it to your local muffler shop and ask them to replace the muffler with a stock muffler, or u could ask them for suggestions on just the muffler, or go flowmaster or gibson.

btw, when i got my new muffler on my old truck, it was like 5 dollars more to have them replace the tail pipe too. looked cleaner. just my 2 cents

 

Stock Toyota mufflers run about $350 installed at the stealerships. Go to a local shop and have a lifetime muffler installed for less than half of that. That way, if it rusts out again, you're covered. Definitely spring for a new tailpipe!

I went with the Jardine catback system for my '02, but it's probably a little loud for your tastes. There are other options out there too and the local shop should have plenty of info.

 

check out magnaflow, and anything that fits the 99 version of our trucks will fit an 01

 

I went with a 14225 Stainless Magnaflow off Ebay for $60. and had a shop install it for $30.

 

24'' magnaflow muffler should sound nice i have the 18'' version its not stupid loud but its loud enough

 

I just actually had my muffler rust out and after a bit of reading and comtemplating I went with a magnaflow 12286 24" muffler. It's perfect. Not too loud but has a low rumble. At idle you don't really notice it and under acceleration it has a real low tone. I'm happy with it .

 

One of the problems with Borla, is that they do mostly stuff for vehicles with manual transmissions. Don't ask me why, but I guess they are easier for them to work with....I guess. Magnaflow, or Flowmaster would probably be the way to go, If you're looking for any sort of a deal. Good luck.

 

are you sure about that? I have 2 cats and all of the websites I have looked at have a different muffler for 01 & 02.
