I come out of school today, start the 4Runner up. Massive exhaust leak. I'm like "wtf, this shit was fine this morning." Have my friend put his hand over the tailpipe, I look underneath. Some asshole cut the fcuking catalytic converter off some time between 7am and 11am while I was in school. School cameras doesnt catch that far outside. So I'm screwed. Catalytic converter thefts are notorious on Toyota trucks since they are high up and easy access with a hacksaw. Gonna install a straight pipe on it. Sucked fcuking balls driving on the highway back home.

Yeah they have platinum in them. Those stock Toyota cats are worth some good money.

Ive heard of this before... sucks but ive heard it happens on all trucks that people can get a sawsall near the cat. As long as your 4runner doesnt have a downstream O2 sensor you shouldnt have any problems running no cat unless your emmisions inspector is a stickler. Sucks tho...

The 02 Sensor was right before the cat so I'm safe. Bought a straight pipe today, gonna weld it tomorrow afternoon in school. I'm just pissed off it happened to me. I remember thinking about lining the whole thing with razor blades just in case it happened. <_<

Don't worry. Growing up in Brooklyn, taught me a lot. I dont need hand to hand combat skillz. Just a slab of concrete and a really short temper. I honestly would've probably stomped his face into the ground if I had walked up on it happening. If only...

Welcome back to the 80s folks. Remember when all this shit used to happen? Well, it's starting up again. I was walking down my neighborhood this morning to my Civic and noticed 4 cars in a row with their windows busted out.

Sorry to hear it Sam. Maybe you are better off just putting in a straight pip. If you put another cat in there, they'll probably just rip that one out too.

Last time I caught somebody breaking into my car, he crawled away from the encounter. ;)

Al, I'm putting a straight pipe in tommorrow. I was supposed to do it today, but the Live shop at school was flooded with jobs with no available lift. I might end up just using the Body shop's welder and do it on the floor. The aftermarket cats arent worth shit anyway. I also dont know why now they are going for cats because they arent worth that much anymore.

Welded the straight pipe on today. Still got a slight exhaust leak. I wasnt able to catch the top of the pipe when I welded it to the muffler because of clearance issues. Gonna put muffler patch on it and it should be good to go.
