Default Removing the silencer

How do you do it?!? I couldn't find anything when I searched. There's 1 screw that holds it in, but when that's off, the silencer only budges here and there. I can't get it out no matter how hard I try.
Also, where the exhaust hangs on the rubber hangers, there isn't a flared end on each one. will my exhaust potentially slip out of the hangers? if so, what can I do to prevent this?

Thank you so much for the help.

What type of exhaust did you get?


I used a bent metal coat hanger to get my silencer out of my RS*R. You might get caught up in the screen on the inside of the muffler (if yours is like mine), but a little maneuvering and it should come out.....at least mine did. Took me about five minutes to get the silencer out with the hanger. It just slips right in and out, but it has to come out straight because it's such a close tolerance.

On the hanger issue...yes the stocker is held in by the flared ends. My exhaust also has the flared hangers, so no issues with that for me. Others may be able to help you out there.
