1999 ranger 3.0 flex fuel y pipe problems

Hello everyone. Having a hard time finding a y pipe for my ranger 3.0 flex fuel with the three cat set up. Anyone ever delete the front two cats and just leave back one with out getting a check engine light?

Can't say but if you can't find parts for it why not just delete it. If the light does come on you can just get a tune for the pcm to expect the deleted cat. With my SCT tuner I can turn egr on or off, or even turn off the rear 02 sensor all together. It's worth a shot.

Yes, +1 ^^^^

You won't find the OEM setup any more you will/should find 1 Cat on each pipe to single pipe.
Newer Cats are better so even Ford dropped the dual Cats

While this one seems a little pricey, to me: https://www.carid.com/eastern-cataly...pn-808514.html

It is available, maybe you can find a better deal

How much did your SCT tuner cost you? Been looking for one at a good price.
