Instead of going through all the trouble of trying piece back together your "gutted cats", you could have just restricted your exhaust flow about 50% and had the same affect, lol. There's no fairy dust or muffler bearings inside catalytic converters that makes your exhaust sound cool. Good God, man.
Master tech, lol, You've trolled darn near every single post I've made on this forum, probably because I see you for the fool you are. Keep your truck stock if you want. You and Cocksickle have the distinct privilege of being on my ignore list, which is very rare, but neither of you have...
I'm just messing around, if you clowns actually believe what you're posting, then leave your cats in, I'm not the one trolling here. If you don't like the topic, then don't participate, but don't post nonsense about the world coming to an end because you removed some ridiculous EPA bullshit. You...

So the pics Toyfrog's rig, being zero offset, if you wanted the -12mm 9" rims, your tires would poke 1/2" more. I agree with Lunentucker about pretty much everything. I went with -12mm offset because I'm dumb ;) and because I don't really care for the look of the rim being flush with tire. It...
Nice rig!! Those are one of my favorite factory rims. Just so happens, I'm going to try and make a dick of myself in Deadwood this weekend. It will be minimal effort. ;) ?
You do realize you could have just tuned the sound with exhaust, right? Putting the cats back in because you don't like the exhaust note is like reaching in the toilet and putting the turd back in your ass because you're hungry again.
It's for sound deadening. The lower end models don't even have one. If it got hot enough to damage your hood paint, the plastic clips that hold the liner in place would have melted already. Plus, the underside of the hood has sleketonized bracing that acts as a heat sink. air coming in from...
That, I do not know, as we've never done a cat delete on a Gladiator, but on previous deletes, an HP Tuner can do most anything, you can shut down all emissions input. Once the ECM is unlocked, and if I can get test pipes, I will let you know. ?
I wouldn't turn my nose up at someone trying to give me 10-15K off a new truck and give me more than what my trade books for. Don't look a gift horse in the mouth. I would buy the baddest truck on the lot, at the very least, the one I've always wanted. If things seem like they're getting worse...
