Rear Cat replacement V6 ES9J4S

Post by Dane »

Dear forum members,

Both the front and rear cats are leaking in the flexpiping and I want to replace. The front one is not a problem, already had it removed once when replacing starter motor.

However the rear one, can it be replaced without taken out the whole engine? Was thinking about removing the inlet manifold and left hand engine mount to push the engine towards the front.

Has someone on here tried to replace the rear cat?

I would be happy to hear about procedure and suggestions :)
