Gibson 96-01 Ford Explorer Limited 5.0L 2.5in Cat-Back Single Exhaust - Stainless

This Gibson cat-back exhaust system is built with 2.5-inch mandrel-bent stainless steel tubing, a choice that helps maintain consistent exhaust flow and resists corrosion over time. It’s designed specifically for the 1996-2001 Ford Explorer with the 5.0L engine, and it exits straight out the back with a polished stainless steel tip. You can expect a more aggressive sound than stock, but Gibson has worked to minimize interior drone thanks to the baffled and chambered Superflow™ CFT muffler, which doesn't rely on internal packing.

Installation is straightforward with a bolt-on design that uses factory-style hangers and includes all the necessary hardware. This means you can achieve a professional look and feel without needing to cut or weld. While the primary benefit is the improved exhaust note and appearance, owners often see an average gain of 5-10 horsepower from the improved flow. This system is backed by a Lifetime Limited Warranty from Gibson, giving you confidence in its durability.
