Vader - exhaust mod - slip on muffler

[prismways]

So I received my nice looking imitation Yoshi muffler. It looks nice and it seems to be a decent build.



Here is the link to the muffler:

I looked at my stock muffler and somebody mentioned that you can twist off the stock one but when I look at it, it looks like it's weld on pretty good. Do I need to take it to the shop to have that removed? Also, I wonder if there is enough of a pipe in there for me to slip the new muffler over? I can see the reducer is not small enough so I will need to find another reducer to make the slip on fit properly. What do you guys think?

Yeah, I agree.

Try cutting on the muffler first right pass the weld That way you won't be cutting the pipe. Then you can just grind off the weld off the pipe after.

Ditto that, I would cut the tapered end of the muffler at the point where it matches the inside diameter of the new can, tack weld the spring retainers and it should slip right on. The key word being "should"

Yeah, I have an angle grinder and will undertake this task this weekend. Taking a huge risk here as I have never done this. Will let you guys know how it goes.
