I found the Part# for the muffler but no one close has it in stock 3 to 7 days to receive it. We are on a cross country trip and I stopped yesterday at a rest area and done my usual walk around and noticed the tail pipe was barely hanging on I wiggled it and it fell to the pavement. I had about 50 miles to get out of the desert and to Tehachapi Ca. where we pulled in and stopped I called a local diesel shop and they were closing up for the day. I explained my situation and he said be at his shop 8 am this morning and he would get a muffler located and put it on...no such luck as stated earlier 3 to 7 days to have it shipped. So we decided to just straight pipe it and put my chrome tail piece back on so we could get on down the road. I was concerned about it being to loud but we drove about 150 miles today and really it's not that much louder. I might just leave it straight piped, we have another month on this trip that should give me plenty of time to decide. I guess I should have paid closer attention to the muffler when doing my routine maintenance.
I just placed mine wit an aero exhaust turbine muffler. I did not weigh the difference between the 2 on scales but t least 25 pounds lighter and no noticeable increase. Built the new system out of stainless steel myself.

When I had my 98 Dynasty and the muffler wasn't available a local industrial
muffler shop built one for me. It worked just like the old one. You could also
look at putting in a resonator.
