Title: Newbie with a question and I tried searching!
Post by Schmear on 03/20/05 at 02:26:16

I found a jardine muffler for my 95 savage. It is the slip on for like 145.00 or so. What do I need to do in order to put it on my bike? Do I need special tools, new gaskets (if so where do I get them), is it a bolt-on part, ect.? Thanks in advance for your help, I have searched and sorted through posts for a few hours now and I cannot find anything.

Is it a new Jardine? If so, good. Used ones seem to have loose baffles.

You can start by removing the old one. Once you have that one off, you'll know how to put on the new one :)

Good advice. Even if the Jard is not a perfect fit, Autozone and Pep Boys sell all kinds of exhaust adapters and clamps, cheap. The stock Savage chrome exhaust cover will hide a multitude of sins.

Just for grins yesterday I removed my muffler. Near where the muffler meets the headpipe there is a 12mm nut and a 10mm nut on a couple of clamps. I loosened both, but the heat shield wouldn't come off. I then noticed a couple of 12mm nuts under the center of the muffler holding it to a bracket. Removed. But the muffler would not lift clear of the barcket until I loosened the two 10mm nuts holding the headpipe to the engine. Then everything wiggled enough to remove the muffler.

Fired it up -- sure is LOUD without a muffler.

Put everything back. Fired it up, still too loud, shut down and tightened the two nuts holding the headpipe to the engine.

Do the Jardine and MAC come with studs in the muffler to fit the same bracket that the stock muffler bolts to?

Think so....I do know that the SuperTrapp and Raask are Savage specific with stubs for the bracket....

I am stationed here in Germany and we do not have PEP Boys and Autozone ect. :) Is there an online store that sells savage exhaust accessories.

The MAC did, yes.
