Re: muffler/cat removal
Just bend over and look under the passenger side of the Jeep. To answer your question, they're NOT welded together. All you need to do is unbolt the catalytic converter. Don't forget to remove the 2nd O2 sensor. BTW, I wouldn't bother messing with the catalytic converter. Just unbolt the muffler and tail pipe and have a new one welded to the existing flange and add tail piping if desired and bolt back into place.
