  • Original equipment replacement design for direct-fit service on listed applications
  • Center exhaust pipe for OE-style routing
  • Fits 1998-2003 Ford Ranger, center
  • Fits 1998-2003 Mazda B3000, center
  • Fits 1998-2003 Mazda B4000, center

Detailed Product Overview

AP Exhaust 38671 is intended for trucks that use the factory center exhaust pipe configuration, including Ford Ranger and Mazda B-Series models with the noted wheelbase and OE welded-assembly design. The aluminized steel material is selected for exhaust-system durability, while the OE replacement format supports service work on vehicles that require a factory-style pipe section rather than a universal fit part. This part number, 38671, is a practical choice when replacing a worn or damaged center exhaust pipe on a 1998-2003 Ford Ranger or a matching Mazda B-Series application.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

  • Rust-through or corrosion in the center exhaust pipe
  • Cracks or leaks in the factory welded exhaust assembly
  • Exhaust noise caused by a damaged pipe section
  • Restricted exhaust flow from a deteriorated pipe
  • Failed inspection due to visible exhaust damage

Installation Notes and Fitment Tips

Compatible With 1998-2003 Ford Ranger, center; 1998-2003 Mazda B3000, center; 1998-2003 Mazda B4000, center; 1998-2000 Mazda B2500, center; and 2003-2004 Mazda B2300, center. Several listed applications note that the OE system was a welded assembly, so related exhaust components may need to be replaced during service. Verify wheelbase and existing exhaust layout before installation. AP Exhaust 38671 should be matched to the exact vehicle configuration shown in the fitment data.

Quality Assurance

AP Exhaust 38671 is an OE replacement exhaust pipe made from aluminized steel for the listed Ford Ranger and Mazda B-Series applications. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
