Product Description

The MagnaFlow 23285 is an HM Grade Federal/EPA compliant direct-fit catalytic converter for 1994-2002 Dodge Ram 1500, 2500, and 3500 trucks with the 3.9L V6, 5.2L V8, or 5.9L V8 engine, front position. At 50.875" overall length with a 12" converter body, 2.0" inlet, and 2.5" outlet, it is a 3-way ceramic honeycomb converter built to replicate OEM exhaust routing exactly. Trucks with a dual-converter setup require a separate rear unit. OEM factory hardware must be reused -- clamps and fasteners are not included.

HM Grade means additional precious metal catalysts beyond the standard grade for enhanced conversion efficiency. The clamshell body with integrated butt joints and flared receivers simplifies bolt-on installation with no cutting or welding on most applications. Mandrel-bent 16-gauge 409 stainless steel and OE-like O2 sensor port locations maintain proper sensor feedback and prevent check engine lights. Heat shield included. Not legal for sale or installation in California or Colorado. Made in the USA. Backed by MagnaFlow's 5-year / 50,000-mile construction warranty and 25,000-mile emissions warranty.
