I would have loved to catch the scumbag who stole mine over ten years ago while it was parked at work. The eventually fired Fat Bastard Head of Security wouldn't even let me review the security tapes either! I was first in a run of about ten others before the dirtbag was finally caught elsewhere.

Looks like good police work to me, I’m pretty sick of the scum bags that are cutting off cats and breaking into cars. It’s all over the place.

Sounds like an inside job.

Sounds like an inside job.

Or the same person

Yup, they hit my apartment complex in July.
Hang the bastards!

 

[weekendracer]

Dang, looks like they stole some turbo setups as well.

Sux. Don't have a problem where I'm at, but we got a whole chunk of the garage taken up by the one ton because of this shit. We leave the tractor and one car outside that could easily fit in that apace. Looking for a deterrent solution, but they ain't cheap, and it seems they arent foolproof.
Enough ground clearance they can spend as much time as the wanted under there at 3 am. Neighbors had engine parts stolen off a loader one night... didn't realize it until much, much later, as he only used it about once or twice a month.

Time to ban catalytic converters. Save the children!

How old must a car be before you can remove the cat converter?

I have been wondering the same?

I would think if you remove the converter you probably won't pass the emissions test for your sticker.

After a certain age, it is exempt. I don't know if that is 10, 15, 20 years old.

There is no emissions test in Bryan County, Georgia. I was surprised to learn this. It varies from county to county. There’s no vehicle inspection in fact.

Which does mean that you end up with unroadworthy vehicles on the road.

The rims!

I would rather see cops go after this crap than most of what they publicly advertise.

3/4 ton or larger, right off the showroom floor.

What’s wrong with that ranger?? She’s rollin on 20s!

I had an old square 1/2 ton ram 318 that I swapped on a 1 ton 360 exhaust system on. Factory H pipe into a dual inlet muffler to a single 2.75" tailpipe i think. I deleted the air pump and plugged the holes in the manifolds. Boy... that really unlocked 5 extra horses.
The exhaust actually sounded worse. Sounded like a ups truck on life support.

California doesn't have vehicle inspections either, just emissions.

It is ironic that arguably the most nanny state in the union doesn't feel the need to inspect your car, for your own good.

And....how many accidents has the Beverly Hillbillies' pickup caused? The rubber on that ride looks better than a lot of stuff around here, and we get snow (supposedly).

Now that I thought about it I think it was dual mufflers into a single tailpipe.
Can't rember if it has cats or not. I sent remember having to do much. I think I trimmed something the wheelbase were different.

Either way, nobody cares lol

It's illegal to ever remove it without replacing it with a compatible part. Nothing to do with the 15 year limit to emissions inspection.

The concept of private property is pretty fundamental. I'd rather cops go after cat converter thieves than some guy minding his own business who cut the barrel on his shotgun.
