Cat Converter Shield Broke
Hey all. I was putting on a Greddy SP cat-back. In the process, I chipped off part of the cat converter shield (the part where the bolt is located). I've put the shield back on, but it is only bolted on by 3 bolts, instead of 4. Now when I'm driving, I hear the shield rattling. I was wondering if there's an easy way to fix this (figured I can't use super glue). Or can I just take the cat converter shield off? Do I really need it? Thanks. :)

Almost the same thing happened to me cept . there was somthing IN the cat that was rattling instead of the shield..just go around looking for a new shield..or just take it off..it shouldn't get damaged....
|
just put a piece of hard foam rubber, jammed in thier so it doesn't rattle.... or a small peice of bubble gum
|
Wouldn't the bubble gum eventually fall off, due to the heat of the cat converter? I'm thinking about just taking the shield off. That shouldn't really hurt the cat, right?
|
Well the bubble gum... was kinda a joke... double sided foam tape might work pretty nice... and yes I think you might have to replace the foam every two years or so.... but I would keep the sheild... mainly becuase it seres to protect the pipe.. It sits kinda low.

take it off...
