i installed a banks monster cat back system on my 04 4.0 tj yesterday. install was mostly smooth except that i also replaced both hangers and the front one is a real PITA. anyway, very happy with the banks for the install and the sound so far.

my question is this. the banks muffler does not have a weep hole. i know from when i had it on loose that there's a fair amount of water in the exhaust. is this a problem? should i add a weep hole, maybe in the exhaust line right behind the muffler? has anyone had their banks rust out? thanks

thanks jerry. a magnet stuck to the muffler like a free beer so i don't think its a very good grade of stainless.

i don't have the confidence to drill a weep hole in the muffler but i think i'll put one in the exhaust pipe just behind the muffler.

Condensation will collect at the lowest point which is the muffler. Putting a hole is not going to do anything. I would not worry about it or just drill into the muffler. You are not going to hurt anything
