Default Gasket between 3rd cat and resonator

Hey,

life in the salt belt can be rough. But, recently I was blessed with a zero rust completel exhaust from flange after the their cat to the muffler, all original for $30.

Does anyone know the part number for the gasket for the flange between third cat and resonator?

thanks

90080-43033

Walker gaskets are very similar to OEM and cheaper, do not use a solid aluminum gasket it will melt and gall into the metal and cause damage.

That’s man!

the flanges were relatively perfect considering the source . Used a walker but it leaves a decent gap. Probly 3/32. With our salty environment that’s not good. Also it can bend the ears of the flanges. I’ve got 3/8 size standard flat washers in there now. I wonder if there is a liquid gasket or something I could use?

I've never had luck with exhaust gaskets in a tube type products they don't last. I know what you mean about the gap use muffler wrap to seal it up the stuff will degrade after a few years then wrap again.

I’m going to measure a Toyota gasket and see if it will allow theflanges to touch

so nice to have this new complete exhaust. Now for the motor mounts and struts...

I just brought it to an exhaust shop and they just cut it out and welded it straight through for $150, same for the midpipe to the rear muffler.
