Jenny,

1984 OEM parts are different from 1985-87 units. Maybe it's only a matter of
length of the twin tailpipes since your car has the valance-less bumpers.
But it can also be something less easy to modify. I'm sure a lot of people
here know the difference.

So, maybe the easiest route for you would be a 85-87 muffler (Walker or
Bosal), and adapt it to your 84. They look exactly the same on the ETKA
pages.

Part numbers for 1984 :
Center muffler and pipes : 	853 253 077C
Rear muffler :			NLA

1985-1987 :
Center muffler and pipes : 	853 253 409C
Rear muffler :			853 253 609K

With these numbers, you should be able to find a suitable replacement more
easily.

I've forwarded you the printout of the ETKA pages for both models.

Hi all:

Looking for a rear muffler/silencer for a 1984 4000 QS.  Bosal says the 
part isn't available and I can't find one in any parts stores.  Anybody 
have a line on one?

I might just end up putting a Stebro exhaust on it anyway, but it is 
nice to have a quote on what the Bosal would be to make my decision.  
Choices are always better.

Cheers!
