Description
When your Ford industrial loader or backhoe starts sounding like it’s angry about something, it’s probably time for a new muffler. This horizontal muffler with its 5-1/2″ round body and 55″ overall length is built specifically for Ford 550, 555A, 555B, 655, and 655A industrial machines from 1975-1988. These workhorse machines spend their days moving dirt, loading trucks, and digging trenches—work that’s hard on exhaust systems.
What You’re Getting
- Horizontal design with 5-1/2″ round body that handles the exhaust flow these industrial engines produce
- 1-7/8″ inlet diameter and bent pipe outlet that matches your machine’s exhaust system perfectly
- Full 55″ length gives you the sound dampening these powerful machines need for comfortable operation
- Direct replacement design—no modifications or adapters needed
Built for Real Construction Work
These Ford industrials from the mid-70s through the late 80s were the backbone of countless construction and excavation operations. Whether you’re running a 550 utility loader around the farm, operating a 555A backhoe on a job site, or using a 655 for heavy digging work, these machines see constant use in dusty, dirty conditions. The horizontal muffler design fits these compact machines while providing the sound control you need for all-day operation.
Made to Last
Industrial machines work harder than farm tractors, and their exhaust systems take more abuse from constant operation, temperature swings, and job site hazards. This replacement muffler is built to handle the punishment with heavy-duty construction that resists the heat and vibration these diesel engines dish out day after day.
Installation Notes
This muffler bolts right in place of your original—just make sure to check the condition of your exhaust pipe and clamps while you’ve got things apart. If you’re dealing with a machine that’s been running without a muffler for a while, you’ll be amazed at how much quieter and more pleasant it is to operate once you get this installed.
