    Quiet your exhaust and bring back factory-style sound with the Walker SoundFX Direct-Fit Exhaust Muffler 18979. It's a direct-fit, bolt-on replacement for the 2005-2008 Ford Escape, 2005-2006 and 2008 Mazda Tribute, and 2005-2008 Mercury Mariner — see the "Vehicles it fits" section for engine-specific applications.

    • Aluminized steel build: Engineered with 100% aluminized steel for longer service life compared to low-carbon steel, plus an internal drainage system that helps reduce corrosion.
    • Factory sound: Louvered tubes help reduce radiated noise for factory-style sound quality compared to straight perforated tubes.
    • Built to last: Internal partitions and mechanically joined tubes allow expansion and contraction during temperature changes to minimize distortion, while spun-locked heads and OE-style spot welds provide stability.
    • Easy to install: Bolts in like the original, using pipe routings, hangers and brackets in the OE style so installation doesn't require specialized fabrication or welding.

    Mechanical interior joints add durability, and the spun-locked heads help resist rupture from backfires — delivering the quality appearance and favorable acoustics Walker SoundFX mufflers are designed for.
