It simply unbolts. Add the flappers to the existing tips and enjoy

I boat on lake winni in NH. I will get a ticket the first time out. I need to replace with Corsa baffled tips..

Oh. Gotcha. Never had the tips off, but if you going to run a muffler anyway, why not just continue to run the S/T?

the raw SS tips are screwed on and bedded in 5200
Have fun!

Been there done that!

there is a very thin line of heat that will soften the 5200 and not scorch the surrounding gel.
I tried the release crap that is supposed to soften 5200, it was worthless!

My S/T box has had it.. I was afraid of that Rippem.. I think I will just try and fix the box for now because this has turn out to be a big pain in the butt!! If I just put flaps on a hope I don't get a ticket will I have to worry about water going back up the tips?

No. Pretty much how 99% who remove the silent thunder box do it.
