Hey all- Put a pretty good dent in the stock muffler this weekend. Its holding for now, but I think it needs to be replaced. I've heard Flowmasters are good, but I'm looking for any and all recommendations, advice, models, and price. Thanks!

I have an Original 40 Series Flowmaster on my libby. It sounds great and only cost $125 installed. Didn't see any improvment on mpg though.

What ever you get mount the new muffler as close to the rear axle as possible...it will make it much harder to hit. The Flowmaster Delta 50 SUV is a great muffler for the 3.7L...the "SUV" means that the body of the muffler is thicker to cut down on cabin noise...extra bebfit is that ii is stronger.

GOOD INFO! Mine looks like an old soda can that's been kicked around the block all summer by a really bored kid!

my plan is to desine the skid so it cost under $100 to build wich will make it cheeper than a new muffler
