YKYDAXJ when every time you see a parked lifted or modified XJ and the owner is nowhere to be found, you leave a note on the windshield with cherokeeforum.com on it. been doing that a few times tonight lol.

BIGCOOK, mine didn't have one when I bought it, either. I found out when I brought it to MD and had it inspected. They tried to take my temp tags so I couldn't drive it til a new cat was installed. If you didn't know, it isn't your fault. Some people get on here and start fights about it, though.

Now, this topic should be ended here cause it's off-topic.

When the cop directly behind you can read the license plate of the person directly in front of you at a stop light.

So the only thing creating back pressure in the entire exhaust system is the cat? Huh, learn something everyday...

There's no need to come in here antagonizing people. Besides.... this isn't a catalytic converter thread.


Back on topic.... YKYDAXJW your family tells you that you need to go on that intervention show for your Jeep parts buying addiction.

Sorry, wasn't my intention...

...when everytime you drive in it for more than an hour, your back starts complaining, but you just stretch it out and take some advil.
