This is for my 1996 Jeep Cherokee 4.0L. After years of off-roading the catalytic converter has hit quite a few rocks and it seems it might be broken a bit inside causing this exhaust rattle. Sometimes it rattles, sometimes it doesn't. Only does it at idle though. It's obviously coming from the catalytic converter, muffler seems fine. Jeep is quiet when it isn't rattling.
So what recommendations do you guys have for a cat and maybe a muffler? There's a local exhaust shop that'll weld in new stuff for cheap, they welded in a cat my brother brought in for his truck a few months ago for $40. Catalytic converter has an oxygen sensor screwed into the back so the new one will need that port.
I'm considering replacing the muffler as well. I don't want it loud, I want it very quiet on the highway with perhaps a little sound when I'm on the throttle. Not important though. Also don't want to spend a huge amount on it. Might just keep the original muffler though, still undecided.
Maybe get a catalytic converter with better flow for better performance? It's pretty quick as it is, but I don't really know anything about exhaust stuff so I'm open to recommendations.
