Detailed Description

AP Exhaust 7505 is made for vehicles that use a welded exhaust layout, including Toyota Highlander and Lexus RX models. The aluminized steel construction is selected for exhaust service in a replacement assembly, and the fitment notes call for cutting the original system at specific points behind the rear converter weld to install the new muffler assembly correctly. For shoppers searching for a Toyota Highlander muffler assembly or Lexus RX350 exhaust muffler assembly, AP Exhaust 7505 provides a cataloged replacement option for the listed years and positions.

Common Issues This Part Can Address

  • Rust-through or corrosion in the original muffler assembly
  • Exhaust leaks at a welded factory section
  • Damaged or failing rear exhaust components
  • Noisy exhaust operation from a worn muffler body
  • Replacement needs after converter-adjacent exhaust section repair

Installation Notes and Tips

Installation requires cutting the OE system at the locations listed in the fitment notes. For 2008-2013 Toyota Highlander applications, the OE system must be cut 5-1/2" behind the rear converter weld. For 2007-2009 Lexus RX350 front applications, the OE system must be cut 5-1/2" behind the rear converter weld. For 2004-2007 Toyota Highlander applications, the OE system must be cut 3" behind the rear converter weld to fit with the OE converter, or 7-1/2" behind the rear converter weld for front applications. For 2004-2006 Lexus RX330 front applications, the OE system must be cut 3" behind the rear converter weld to fit with the OE converter. Verify the vehicle’s exhaust layout before beginning service.
