Borla S-Type Axle-Back Exhaust System with Satin Black Ceramic Coating (11956CB) - 2018-2026 Jeep Wrangler JL / JLU 3.6L V6
Wake up the adventure-ready spirit of your rig with the high-impact Borla S-Type Axle-Back Exhaust System. Custom-engineered for 2018 to 2026 Jeep Wrangler JL (2-Door) and JLU (4-Door Unlimited) models, this premium rear section upgrade introduces Borla's highly sought-after acoustic profile: the classic S-Type sound level. Formulated explicitly for off-roaders and driving enthusiasts who want a balanced, aggressive exhaust note under acceleration without being overly obnoxious, the S-Type muffler gives the 3.6L Pentastar V6 engine a deep, throaty growl. This axle-back configuration delivers an ideal trail-ready acoustic presence while relying on advanced straight-through internals backed by Borla's official No-Drone Guarantee to keep the cabin completely quiet and drone-free during long highway trips or extended overlanding journeys.
The internal engineering of the Borla 11956CB targets key factory flow restrictions by incorporating an upgraded high-efficiency performance layout that channels a 2.75-inch inlet path through ultra-smooth mandrel bends and splits into dual 2.5-inch outlets to ensure maximum exhaust velocity, improved throttle response, and fuel economy. Built completely from premium-grade, aircraft-quality T-304 austenitic stainless steel, the entire exterior of this highly durable axle-back assembly is fully shielded in a specialized, high-temperature satin black ceramic finish. This premium coating delivers an understated, stealthy look beneath your bumper while defending permanently against structural degradation, extreme trail-heat cycling, and heavy off-road mud or road salt corrosion. The spent exhaust gases exit through a distinctive dual split rear configuration featuring two 3.5-inch round, rolled angle-cut lined ceramic black stainless steel tips. Precision CNC-manufactured for an accurate line-to-line bolt-on fitment, this system utilizes all stock hanger locations and is backed by Borla’s legendary lifetime Million-Mile Warranty.
Chassis & Configuration Notes: This axle-back system is engineered specifically for the 2018-2026 Jeep Wrangler JL/JLU generation powered by the 3.6L V6 engine. It is fully compatible with both Automatic and Manual transmissions and fits 2-Door and 4-Door Unlimited 4WD models. It will **NOT** fit older Wrangler JK configurations or alternative engine platforms like the 2.0L Turbo, 4xe Plug-In Hybrid, or 392 V8 layouts without modification.
