Default Stupid Baffle Question

Forgive me of my ignorance, but on Rush Slip-Ons, I have a pair of 1.75s and I noticed I can purchased separate baffles. Are the baffles mounted inside the slip-on or cut to size. ie: Can I purchase a pair of 2.0 baffles and slip them on in, or do I need to stick with the 1.75s?

you can change them to any size . there is a screw on the bottom of the pipe that holds the baffle in. remove the screw and they slide out.

&nbsp\\;
That issue came up on the forum not too long ago.&nbsp\\; Someone had an easy fix for it but I don't remember what it was.&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\; You may be able to just take the baffle out and open up the ends a bit.&nbsp\\; Maybe squeeze them together so they fit more snugly.&nbsp\\; Or maybe it's something as simple as tightening the screw on the bottom.
