75 cb 550 f 4 into 1 exhaust:
muffler is rotted.
headers are rusty.
best way to fix the headers?
how do is sepperate the muffler from the header? it has a bolt with no head and the nut on the other side looks to be welded on?
can i just buy the muffler some where with gaskets and such?
i looked on bike bandit and they just seem to sell black headers with chrome mufflers.i guess im just a little confused and need to shop around more and think it out. but i could use some beta on the subject and possibilities i have.i would like to be all chrome.

Dennis Kirk is your friend.

So is Bike Bandit.

Dennis Kirk does free shipping on orders over $100. Bike Bandit is usualy cheaper, though without the sheer volume of differant stuff as DK. Check both out for what you need.

And if you're planning on replacing the whole exhaust system, just cut that weld with a grinder or something, you won't need those pipes anymore. Oh, by CB550/4 you mean the Super Four, right? If not, you'll have to re-search those two sites.
