Default Changing exhaust

Can anyone tell me if you need a gasket between where the exhaust pipes bolt onto the muffler pipes?

If you're talking the connection between the stock h-pipe (or after market x-pipe) amd the exhaust over the axle pipe the answer is yes.

And they will set you back around $10 apiece if you go to the dealer.

You will definately need these (2). I got mine from the local dealer after trying all the parts houses with no success. Good luck. Chris
