Silencer repacking

[ORBanshee]

So this is my first banshee, it has the older style pro circuit platinum pipes with the old style 304 silencers, replacing my rubbers where the pipe connects to the silencers because one side was dripping oil on my filters, that same side the silencer has some stuff on it up there(picture attached) and if I look inside the silencer the screen is broken and just plain trashed, I'm assuming I need to repack my silencers? Where can I find that screen like piece? Thanks guys

If you can, get the old piece out, measure length and diameter.  Report back.

Probably be about 3 weeks before I get the chance, leaving for dunefest at the beginning of next week and today is basically my only work day on it because I'm swamped at actual work so that I can get the week of dunefest off

Pro circuit sells the cores, just give them a call. I'd wait until you take it apart just in case you need anything else while you're in there.

Good to know, thanks screamer, wasn't sure if they would have them since it's the older style, I think I remember reading somewhere that fmf packing is the best Stuff to use is that right?

I don't know about the best packing material. I use the cheapest they sell on Rocky Mountain ATV, I think its Lexx brand.

Most guys I know use insulation you buy at home depot .

Steel wool pot/pan scrubbers makes a good packing also

I repacked my shearers with the fmf long lasting material (shredded pillowy stuff) i swear it made mine quieter, maybe it was placebo. but it took me a while to cram the stuff in there.  its a tight fit

More quite than it was when it was blown out or more quite than using other packing material?

more quiet than regular packing material, id have to do a true DB test though, like i said perhaps placebo, but seems like it
