Default Need Muffler Help!

Hello, my fathers 06' Impala SS has seem to decide to get some nasty exhaust leaks/cracks on the top of the muffler. You can actually feel the air running out and its loud as hell compared to what is was. Does anybody know of any good universal style mufflers to put on its place or do any of you have the axle back portion for sale around Chicago, IL i could pick up or buy? Thanks!

I would say any good exhaust shop would have some cheap universal ones for sale and they can weld them on for you.
Unless you have access to a welder then you just buy'em and weld'em yourself.

You can also buy universal from Jegs.com or summit.com

On here most people go with Performance Catbacks or Louder Mufflers or muffler deletes.

How Loud does your dad want it?

It's a lease vehicle so not loud why I asked here if anybody had stock ones laying around they would sell where not "supposed" to modify it with it being a lease.

If it's a lease wouldn't it be under warranty?

They do not cover exhaust parts, already tried that we have the extended warranty with it and its one of the things not covered.

Take it to an an exhaust shop and have them try to repair the mufflers. May be able to weld them up.
