Default Youtube or Pics of Cat Gutting?

I am visual, and I haven't been able to find a link to someone's write up with pictures or a youtube of someone gutting their cat on our Gen2 Rams. Anyone have a link?

blackbeast, that was when I was thinking about replacing the cat with Y-pipe. Money is tight, so now I am thinking about just gutting the cat. But you would think that somewhere in the web there is a "how too video" but I haven't found one. Sounds simple, until you take into account the little bend the manufacturer put in the pipe exiting the cat. If I welded, it would be a no brainer. But I am going to sleeve the cut and clamp it.

I know the whole money is tight thing but I just said hell with it and bought a high flow cat from summit, Magnaflow. I think it was around $70.

i gutted my cat just fine with that bend in there. didnt have to cut or weld anything. i used a piece of hollow aluminum rod about 8' long. it had a slight curve to the rob, but it worked great!
