Default Best place to buy catalytic

I noticed my catalytic converters are leaking
has anyone bought from eBay the cats and y pipe all in one piece ?
Im in Canada eBay sells the whole assembly for $360 cdn. I know Atlantic British sells it for 700 usd and I have seen some other ones like rock auto sell it for around $490 ansal and walker brands
just wondering if anyone tried the eBay stuff

I got a walker from Rockauto because it was one piece. Bad idea, they had to cut it anyway.

If you remove the driveshaft they can both be welded in. That will be the cheapest option.

Has anyone removed the cats and put in o2 spacers ?
I used to do this on my Subaru’s with no engine codes

wonder if this will work without getting any codes.
Mine are leaking and Emmission test are being eliminated here in Canada soon.

I got a good deal on Amazon on a Magnaflow Y pipe with cats, two pieces. You might try the .CA version of Amazon...

Go get some BigDadiesGarage mini cats. Then get a shop to make some test pipes with O2 bungs in them.
