Oh no! Now somebody will restart the old debates about whether the old North American muffler bearings are better than the new ones from Asia, sealed versus non-sealed, sealed on one side versus sealed on the other side, what kind of grease to use, etc., etc. I just install my mufflers without the bearing and have never had a problem.

Do you credit not having muffler problems to using the expensive stainless one?

... and there I always thought it was connected to the Thing-a-ma-bob. I have used a Padeye stretcher to remove them. And it's November, I was thinking this was the first of April.
