Anyone have issues with their resonator pipe, or exhaust system in general rotting out pre-maturely on 99 or older?
My resonator pipe rotted at the point where it meets the muffler, to a point where it was barely secured, so I had to rip it out to avoid it falling while I was driving.
So I ordered a new one from Rock Auto made by Walker, which the old one was as well. I replaced the entire exhaust system 3 years ago ( third exhaust system put on this vehicle), and I think this is way too soon for the exhaust to corrode.
I live in the Northeast, and we've had some bad winters, but still, I would have expected more life out of these exhaust parts.
