Hello, I am new to the forum. My daughter has a stock 1997 2 door 2WD RAV4. We continue to have problems with the intermediate pipe cracking at the 90 degree bend right before it bolts to the muffler. Has anyone else experienced this problem and is there a retrofit fix? We are on our third pipe now in about 40,000 miles.

Thanks

what I have found is that if it is a common bend and it cracks.. take it off and have it welded. The repaired pipe (if done correctly) will out last a new one. Good luck!
