FourString Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 Good question. I have two that I need to rid of. They are pretty good size too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1647545494 Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 ace iron and metal, however they will only take 1 converter per customer per day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medium fast Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 DO NOT GO TO ACE IRON, Those guys are peices of shit. PM me what they are for and I will get you a price from the guy that buys our old ones. Or just go to IH Schlechinger (SP) off of either Parsons, or the one off Joyce down by 5th. They have the best prices on these type of items. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starkmaster03 Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 I have two for the trans am that were replaced by the dealer a year before I swapped the headers. Would they be worth selling used, or just recycle them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sully Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 If anyone wants to sell them to me, i'll give $50 for a pair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akula Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 A friend of mine had his cut off of his SR5, sawzall in his work parking lot. I guess the crack heads get $100 each. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1647545494 Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 I don't know how.... I put a test pipe and a new catback on my jeep yesterday when the muffler finally blew out and I ran the cat down today to recycle it they. I got IDed at the door then again by the paperwork guy then by a cop who had a whole book of names of people they were looking for and then after all that trouble I got 5 bucks becuase it was an aftermarket converter I should have just thrown the fucker in the trash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
street pilot Posted August 20, 2008 Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 Toyota truck converters are getting ripped off more and more since they contain some of the higher levels of platinum. There is always people on craigslist looking for scrap metal.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FourString Posted August 20, 2008 Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 Converter theft is very high down here where I live. A local Toyota stealership just got ripped off recently of all the cats on a whole line of recalled Tacomas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BloodRed Posted August 20, 2008 Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 A friend of mine had his cut off of his SR5, sawzall in his work parking lot. I guess the crack heads get $100 each. Same thing happened to my sister's SR5 on her birthday in June. She was parked in the back of a the lot at the business she works for in Hebron. The back of the lot is right next to 79, but they still got it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
