Walker 52538 Exhaust Tail Pipe Overview

Walker 52538 is a specific-fit exhaust tail pipe built from aluminized steel for durability and corrosion resistance. It is manufactured with precision benders and fixture checking to support a precise fit and straightforward installation on select Chevrolet Malibu and Saturn Aura applications.

This exhaust tail pipe features a 2.25-inch inlet outside diameter, a 2.5-inch outlet outside diameter, and a 19.5-inch overall length. The 4.5-inch bending radius, 0.05-inch pipe wall thickness, and pipe connection inlet help maintain the intended exhaust routing and connection points.

  • Specific-fit design for direct replacement applications
  • 2.25-inch inlet outside diameter and 2.5-inch outlet outside diameter
  • 19.5-inch length with 4.5-inch bending radius

Use Walker 52538 when replacing a damaged, rusted, or misaligned tail pipe on a Chevrolet Malibu or Saturn Aura exhaust system. The specific-fit design supports accurate alignment with the existing exhaust routing, helping restore proper exhaust exit position and system integrity.

  • Replaces a corroded or perforated tail pipe section
  • Restores exhaust outlet routing on 2008-2012 Chevrolet Malibu
  • Restores exhaust outlet routing on 2008-2009 Saturn Aura
  • Addresses fitment issues caused by bent or damaged exhaust tubing
  • Supports repair of welded exhaust assemblies when required parts are replaced

Installation Notes

Verify inlet and outlet diameters before installation to confirm match with the existing exhaust system. Because this is a specific-fit tail pipe, alignment should be checked against the vehicle’s exhaust hangers and connection points before final assembly. If the vehicle uses a welded exhaust assembly, replace all required related parts during service.

Quality Assurance
