Product Details

Walker 18253 is a round, regular-grade exhaust muffler with a 19-inch body length and 24-inch overall length. The steel body and aluminized finish help resist corrosion better than low-carbon steel construction, while the direct-fit layout supports a clean replacement on the intended vehicles. This part cross-references Walker Exhaust 41459 for the same application.

Common Exhaust Issues It Can Address

  • Rust-through or corrosion in the original muffler
  • Exhaust noise caused by a damaged internal muffler structure
  • Poor exhaust tone from a worn factory muffler
  • Replacement needs for a direct-fit Chrysler or Dodge exhaust repair
  • Fitment concerns when replacing an OE-style muffler on listed models

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify inlet and outlet diameter, offset configuration, and overall length before installation. This muffler uses pipe connection ends and is not reversible or tunable, so orientation should match the vehicle’s exhaust routing. Confirm the vehicle application against the fitment list for Chrysler Dynasty, Chrysler Imperial, Chrysler New Yorker, and Dodge 600 before ordering.

Quality Assurance
