I knocked my old muffler off my L245DT and replaced it with a cheap unit I found on ebay. Now the tractor is twice as loud as it used to be... and yeah, I wear ear protection but it's insanely loud. The manifold and the elbow is intact and all the sound seems to come out of the end of the muffler.
Any thoughts? Should I try and find a car muffler and fit that on there?

Sometimes you get a good deal on eBay and sometimes your get low quality. You pays your money and you takes your chances. You may have gotten a glass pack and the glass burned out already. It is unlikely to be oem quality, only size.

Sure you can fit a universal style automotive muffler on it. Oval style with baffles will be the quietest. If you can see through it it's going to be loud. TSC has universal mufflers also.
