Walker 54717 Exhaust Pipe Overview

Walker 54717 is a specific-fit exhaust pipe for select 2001-2006 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD and GMC Sierra 2500 HD applications. It is built from aluminized steel and formed with precision bending and fixture checks to support a direct-fit installation on the left side.

With a 3-inch inlet and 3-inch outlet and a 36.625-inch overall length, this exhaust pipe is matched to the factory-style routing used on the listed trucks. Walker 54717 is a practical replacement for rusted, damaged, or restricted exhaust sections on Federal Emission System vehicles.

Key Features

• Specific-fit exhaust pipe for listed Chevrolet and GMC heavy-duty pickups
• Aluminized steel construction for corrosion resistance and durability
• 3-inch inlet and 3-inch outlet for factory-style exhaust connection
• 36.625-inch length for the specified application
• Left-side fitment for the covered vehicle configurations
• Precision-formed and fixture-checked for accurate alignment

Detailed Product Description

Walker 54717 is engineered as an OE-style replacement exhaust pipe for 2001-2006 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD and 2001-2006 GMC Sierra 2500 HD models with Federal Emission System equipment, excluding Low Emission Vehicle (LEV) applications. The pipe uses aluminized steel to help withstand exhaust heat and everyday road exposure, while the 3-inch pipe connection at both inlet and outlet supports the original exhaust layout.

This part cross-references AP Exhaust 48615 and Four Seasons 54818 for the same application. If you are replacing a worn exhaust section on a Silverado 2500 HD or Sierra 2500 HD, Walker 54717 provides the correct left-side configuration and dimensions for the listed fitment.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Corrosion or rust-through in the original exhaust pipe
• Exhaust leaks caused by damaged pipe sections
• Restricted exhaust flow from a bent or deteriorated pipe
• Fitment issues when replacing a factory-style left-side exhaust pipe
• Noise from a failing exhaust section on the Silverado 2500 HD or Sierra 2500 HD

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle has the Federal Emission System and is not a LEV application before ordering. Confirm left-side placement, 3-inch inlet and outlet sizing, and overall routing against the original pipe on the truck. For best results, compare the removed part to Walker 54717 before installation on your Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD or GMC Sierra 2500 HD.

Quality Assurance

Walker manufactures this pipe with precision benders and fixture checks to help ensure consistent fitment and straightforward installation. The aluminized steel construction supports long-term service in exhaust system replacement applications.
