Verify the vehicle year and exhaust configuration before ordering, especially on 2000-2002 Jeep Wrangler models built after 01-24-00 and 2003-2006 Jeep Wrangler models excluding Extended Wheel Base applications. Because the OE system was a welded assembly, related exhaust parts noted in the fitment information should be inspected and replaced as needed during service.
