Catalytic Converters--any aftermarket ones you would recomend?

I put some ideas they're that way ^^^^

 

Thank you

According to this
I should change a/f sensor
Then 02
Then Cat at the end

 

Get you a urd USA Sensor simulator way cheaper and easier to fix. Bust that cat out, my simulator has worked perfect no check engine light anymore!!

 

Can't do that in California. We have to get a full visual and diagnostic smog test done every 2 years, can't register your truck unless it passes both.

 

Unless you live in a small town like me Smog when you buy, and smog when you sell and that's it

 

I don't understand, do you not register your truck every year? A smog certificate is required with your registration every other year. I mean I guess you could just ignore it and hope you never get pulled over for not having current plates...

Or do you have "a guy" at a smog shop? Cause if you do I might want to meet him lol

 

There are a bunch of shops that will do it. The way around it is..... the shop just charges you for a repair plus the smog cert , like replacing o2 sensor and you get your plates.

 

Nope just such a small county it's not required. Just when you buy it and when you sell it

 

huh, I thought it was a statewide regulation...I always hear of people registering out of state to avoid smog restrictions but haven't heard of doing it in a different county. Can I put my truck in your name and register it there?

 

After less than 40 miles your cats arw clogged again?. Wtf?!

I would get a code reader and pull he code(s) yourself, if you haven’t already.

Meh, born and raised in Sonora, it’s not all that...

 

Yep, it’s regional.

Never made it up to be lol

 

It’s more mellow than LA, you got me there. Getting less so, though. I remember when we had *one* signal by the KFC, and no walmart or starbucks.

 

When my brother lived in Humboldt, CA he didn't have to smog his truck either. So it's certainly a thing.

*Edit*
counties that are smog exempt in CA are: alpine amador, calaveras, del norte, humboldt, imperial, inyo, lake, lassen, mariposa, mendocino, modoc, mono, plumas, sierra, siskiyou, trinity, tuolumne
