Does anybody know where the cheapest place to buy a cat is? I chopped off my old muffler but a piece of it got left in the outlet of the cat and now I can't get any sort of reasonable exhaust adapter in there without going over the big outer portion of the outlet pipe, which would be about a 3" piece? (which I already tried, and an exhaust shop already tried, it leaks). Think I'm just going to put a new cat on

I just bought a walker cat today for $115 at autozone. I tried putting it on but I couldn't get the o2 sensor off the cat and gave up cause I have to be in work in 30 minutes

YES, 1996 when it switched to OBDII, but its not ALL 1996's either... the switch to OBDII was a mid year change that was effective for the 1997 run.... I have found that not all 1996 cherokee's have the second O2, or even the same electrical setup either....
