Detailed Description

This AP Exhaust muffler, part number 700325, is built for the 1998-2000 Toyota RAV4 and follows the MSL series direct-fit layout. The muffler uses a 120-degree L configuration with a single center upper inlet and a single left lower outlet, making it a fitment-specific replacement for the listed Toyota RAV4 years. Its baffled internal design and OE comparable sound level support factory-style exhaust tone without changing the vehicle’s basic exhaust routing.
