Greetings,

1. I do not have the ticking noise in the 99LX like most of the post, but I can hear the exhaust leaking somewhere near the front of the drivers side....I think. It sound like a normal exhaust leak if there was a hole rusted in the exhaust pipe. Not super loud so it must be small but I cannot find it anywhere. I have been under the vehicle the best I can and I do not see anything loose or cracked anywhere. Any suggestions?

2. The cats were stolen a few years a ago and we just put some cheaper ones on and not one of the cats has broken apart and just rattles around inside. They have a 5 year warranty so I have inquired about a replacement. Guessing that it won't happen, are there any other aftermarket cats that anyone uses. I fully understand OEM as I just put an OEM driveshaft in to take care of the vibration issues we had with an non-oem part. At 253,000 miles just checking to see what is out there.

Thanks in advance.
