jamebo Posted January 2, 2008 Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 Hey guys, I have a question involving re-installing my pipes. I have F.M.F. pipes on my Shee, and the pipes have turned brown and purpilish blue from the flange out around 6 inches. After researching the threads I have decided to remove them and try to clean them up with very fine steel wool and chrome polish, Followed by high temp paint on the inside. Is there some kind of gaskets on the exhaust ports, and if there is should I buy new ones or could I use the same ones? I just don't want any leaks.

jamebo Posted January 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 fmf sells a kit that will give you springs and seals(o-rings) So I would be better off to replace them with new ones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got a Noss head on order, so I'll plan on doing the pipes at the same time. That should give me a few days to get some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hilarious Posted January 3, 2008 Report Share Posted January 3, 2008 FMF does have a kit with (2) o-rings and (4) springs. Rockymountainatv has it. Gotta warn ya tho, the springs arent worth a darn. I would call one of the builders on this site and order just the O-rings. :beer: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have some of those raven swivel springs from rockymountain on my pipes now. They are real heavy duity and one end swivles for easier installation. josh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My springs appear to be in good shape, so I'll just re-use them. I had the dealer install the pipes after I got them, and I think they used the stockers. It's so expensive to have the work done that I want to start learning to do the basic mods myself. That's money that could be spent on parts! This forum has tons of useful info and is very helpful, thanks again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
