how to remove catalytic converter on my truck?
i have a 2000 dodge ram 1500 truck, 5.2. i want to hollow out my converter for personal reasons. i know on some trucks you can unbolt it and rebolt it back on but on mine its one continuous piece. it doesnt unbolt, its one piece connected from the headers and to the muffler. i know i can cut it off and do what i need to do but how do i reinstall it? do i have to buy some pipe extensions and have it re welded or what? i want it to look stock and not have alot of modifications to it that will make it stand out when looking at it.
i dont want to remove the cat permenately, i just want to take it off, hollow it out and put it back on.
get a pipe cutter cut the tail pipe just behind the cat get a long 1 inch drill bit for wood and drill a hole through it one hole should be engulf
you can get a small section of pipe from you're local exhaust shop they you slip over the pipe and muffler clamp it in
now as you're truck is obd2 your check engine light will come on as it will recognize the converter isn't working so you wont be able to license it any more but for an off road vehicle you will be OK
another option is to cut it off save it clamp in a pipe
and put it back in before you re license it you will need to clear the codes 50 miles before you bring i in
a mechanic cannot help you on this as we get fined $10000
for installing a used cat or removing it so you will need to learn how to do it on your own
