Default Exaust Question

Can you just bolt on the factory exaust from an 04 to a 97 ok. Is there anything you have to change?

Assuming the center h-pipe/cats section is still stock, all the stock cat-back mufflers attach in the same way with the same flanges.

As long nothing was cut or welded, you should not have a problem. Good luck.
