There are 3 allen screws by where the silencer goes into the head pipe and there are rivets by where the fumes come out, i tried pulling out the canister but it wouldn't budge, do i need to take the rivets out or just tap by where the screws are with a rubber mallet? Thanks

Leave the rivets alone! A little wiggle, shake, and maybe the mallet should do, unless there is silicon sealing the joint (I cannot remember). The silicon (if present) will need to be cut.

I have the 304 and comes off with the 3 allen screws. Hope that helps.

Thanks, that will save some time and a little money.

I've got the stuff to redo this step. I drilled out my rivets with a 5/16 drill bit and took it apart no prob, repacked it and slid it back in lining the holes back up. Using some stainless steel 5/16 rivets and my air poprivit gun I was done.

One note, before I put it back in, I put some RTV black gasket sealer around the part that rivets back to the can.
