Re-packing a FMF muffler ...

I guess you have to drill the rivets out and then use sheet metal screws to re-assemble or what?

I wonder why they didn't just screw it together in the first place?

Which pipe do you have? Q4 how-to here:

Wow, thanks Sarah!

Mine is a powercore 4, but it may be the same. I thought mine was riveted together but I'll have to take a closer look. I can't imagine them building two similar pipes differently.

Thanks again! -Joel

Glad to help. Hope you'll just need an allen wrench.

repacking the pc4 is the same as the q4.
the rivets are only on the end of the can, allan bolts on the header end.

Yeah, thanks, I guess I was only looking at the riveted end at first. It's a simple job! It looks like making a silencer for the powercore is a pretty easy task too.
