Exhaust "Gasket, Muffler" Life?

[spoonlamp]

Hey

I just did this a couple days ago. Yeah remove the old one (the steel wooly stuff) and replace it with a new one. It's simply to make a tight seal, But when I did it I hard a hard time getting my exhaust to go back on which lead to much deforming of the new gasket... a lot of rotating the exhaust and gasket is needed to get it inside. Don't try putting it in the exhaust and then onto the link pipe! Put it on the link pipe and then place the exhaust. Have fun!

Thanks for this, and thanks for all the input.
