Exhaust Bracket...gaskets?
Which gaskets go on the exhaust bracket? I bought some SE gaskets for the headers but what goes on these?

These gaskets are called "muffler interconnect gaskets."
For my 2009 Sportster Iron, they are HD part #65927-00, and they come two to a package.
Put them on/over the crossover pipe - NOT in the muffler, then slip your mufflers onto the engine pipe the proper amount, then rotate the muffler towards the gasket/crossover outlet [taking care not to screw up the gasket because they're fragile], align them, and press them down over the gasket/crossover outlet, slowly into position. They should slip over real easy. You have a small amount of play in the engine pipe to allow you some movement without screwing up the engine pipe gasket [you can loosen the engine pipes before hand if you want; just don't forget to retighten them after you're done with everything else]. Once they're in place and the mufflers are aligned with the crossover pipe bracket holes, hold the muffler in position and install the two lower mount bolts through the mufflers into the bracket and hand tighten them. Do the other muffler the same way, then add your center mounted pipe bracket, make sure everything's aligned, then tighten everything up. Slide your covers into position over the engine pipe[s] and tighten. Start 'er up and look and feel for leaks...

I bought Rush 3" Slash cut and can't install because the damn crossover on the slipon is too small. Found a solution that said to use a muffler expander but that didn't work because Ruse uses such strong steel... Bike sitting in garage with mufflers off and no way of getting these Rush to cooperate with the crossover gaskets... trashed two sets already.... Any suggestions would be REALLY appreciated!!
