quick catalytic converter question
Just a quick question I need answered. I have the california emmisions spec xj with the 3 cats. The two up front with all the sensors and the one underneath by itself with no sensors. Could I cut the third one with no sensors out? I know its bad to run no cat but if I have the two up front I should be good no? Its rattling like crazy so I want it gone. I dont really have the money for a new one so could I just cut it out?

Removal of the cat is against federal law, and talking about it on the forum is against the forum rules and generally frowned upon. Get a replacement.

Get a spun hi flow cat as a replacement (with or without o2 bung)... They are really cheap... Like $40 or so from mudfrog on this site.

It doesn't matter if you remove one or all of them, it's a violation of federal law to remove, modify, or tamper with any factory installed emissions equipment.
JD Cravin and Michael952, you are both wrong.

Let me guess... One of you doomsayers works at a muffler shop or something along those lines right?
I once went to one for a cat repair and they wanted to charge me over $350 just for the labor " because it's against federal law to blah blah"... So I'm going to suck your wallet dry...I don't think so.
OK... To each their own. OP... Do what you will... I gave my.02¢

Nope. You'd get banned for telling him "It's not against the law to remove if its broken."
