Factory Pipe Gaskets ??

[sledheadgeorge]

Anyone ever try to remove the factory pipe gaskets from a set of new pipes? They are the mesh ones that fit between the "4 into one" pieces and the single pipe to the exaust? Any tricks or advise would be appreciated. They seam to be in there kind of tight. They are coming off the stock pipe I had on my Warrior, never used.

Use a longer bolt and put a nut on then a fender washer slightly smaller than the inside diameter of the gasket and then another nut. This will allow you to work your way around the gasket and slowly pull it up and out. Be patient and take your time and they come right out!

Good tip Allen. Heating the pipe is helpful as well.
