Yeah this one time on my 79 trans am... I had a dual flowmaster exhaust and one of my muffler bearings went bad. You know when one goes and you dont realize it right away then it ruins the other muffler because of the added flow.

Needless to say I ended up spending another 150 again on the two mufflers.

Check them asap mufflers can get expensive!

Or just take the muffler off completely. No muffler, no muffler bearing.

I can't believe you guys go through those so quick. I have had mine for almost 3 years and no problems whatsoever. I even had the muffler shop check them last time I was there. I guess I'm just better about changing my exhaust oil than you guys. You really should be more concerned about these maintenance issues. I have pics of what a bad muffler bearing can do. I'll see if I can find them..........

Here are those pics I was telling you about. This is what happens when you don't keep good muffler bearings in:

Remember, use ONLY genuine Honda muffler bearings, and be certain to replace the kinifler pin at the same time.
