JeepsOLot Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 What's everyone running these days? I finally replaced my stock blown-up muffler (from backfires when I was trying to get it running) on my '88 Eliminator (4.0L Renix) with a Thrush Welded muffler. I must say I'm impressed for spending $37 and change on this thing, and the sound is beautiful!! No raspy ricer sound, deep tones, even when idling, and, when you are on the highway, the drone isn't really bad at all. I was just curious if anyone is running this one, and, if not, what are you guys running. Jerry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shelbyluvv Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 I run the same muffler and really like the sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ggcnash Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Fm 50 on mine,sounds good imo, little more rumble than stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daking Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 I have a flow-master 40 or 50. I don't like the sound. I've been looking for a replacement. I have looked at Thrush and hush master. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yxmj Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 That's the wider rusted out part of the exhaust Mr Oshel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megadan Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 I have a 30" length Maagnaflow oval muffler. Since I have no cat, but wanted my truck to not be obnoxious I ordered a larger bodies muffler. Sounds good, still audible, but not loud at all, and it sounds really good when I open it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 my 88 has a huge Borla. very subdued at idle, sounds great when the skinny pedal gets mashed into the carpet. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeepsouth Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Two magnaflow magnapacks mounted inline ,no cat. Deep mellow tone. Had flowmaster 40 before,it was too hollow sounding for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnj92131 Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Any suggestions for what will be nice and quiet in a replacement muffler? My stock exhaust is suffering with some leaks. So it is time to replace it from stem to stern (perhaps the headers also). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeepsOLot Posted March 8, 2016 Author Share Posted March 8, 2016 Probably just the standard OEM Walker muffler will work for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minuit Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 I've heard that the Dynomax Super Turbo gives a stock-like but very slightly deeper sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xjustinx Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 I have a Dynomax super turbo waiting to go in. I can't recommend the walker oem, mine blew out in less than 2 years. Rattles really bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeepsOLot Posted March 8, 2016 Author Share Posted March 8, 2016 I wished my phone would get better sound. I tried recording the sound from mine, but, the low tones didn't get recorded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outlaw star Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Just ripped the Magnaflow off for a Thrush Turbo. I've outgrown loud exhausts and wanted something quieter. Hell, for 26, I couldn't pass it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComancheKid45 Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 I run Flowtech Raptor mufflers on my trucks and run 18" glass packs in place of the cats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it is time to replace it from stem to stern (perhaps the headers also).I am using whatever basic muffler the muffler shop had when he replaced everything from the manifold back. My theory is when the muffler goes, the rest of the exhaust system is on its way out. $150 for everything from the manifold back, less the cat and installed, is hard to pass up. Plus it is very quiet, the way Jeep motors are supposed to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, for 26, I couldn't pass it up I love my Magnaflow, but it is a big one. That's what I love about Magnaflows though, size matters. No droone at all in my truck, nice deep smooth exhaust note, but when I get on it, you hear it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeepsOLot Posted March 8, 2016 Author Share Posted March 8, 2016 Yeah, I'm sure that MagnaFlow works great behind a 4.0, but the 4cyl's, not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
