Yep, all STOCK 98s came with it, didn't even have to ask
(well, federal mandate I think)
I already have 4 cats,
the Dodge kitty gives me the most trouble
I thought it was more like you had reach inside,
but not sure what to expect to find

Pound a piece of rebar, etc though it.
Heard of folks using a flat type drill bit with extension to chew though them also. The stuff inside is toxic, wear a mask.
Personally I prefer total removal, never know when you might need an intact cat again. A new one is about $900.

thought it would still look like I had one
was thinkin if I didn't want a Cat, it would still look like I had one for any external inspection
But guess if I needed one I'd be sorry, and wrecking it from the outside is obvious anyways..

my 98 had a cat. in 98 i did not know if they were going to start checking for them so we cut the cat out and gutted it the core was soft and i used a wood bit and shop made extension. once i had a good hole through it you can use a bar to knock the rest out. took about 45 minutes and about half of that was making the extension. i should have cut the short piece of pipe between the cat and the muffler and welded the cat to the pipe and installed a clamp to pipe and muffler but i guess i like to do things the hard way. welding the cat to the pipe on the truck with a torch and mirror was a *****
