My 2018 truck was diagnosed as needing the same with only 61000 miles on it. Was told mid July by service representative.

What symptoms / conditions was the truck exhibiting, that alerted you that you needed to replace the cats? I currently have just over 71,000 problem-free miles on the clock.

Most are stolen long before they need replacing.

I'd just order a quality aftermarket downpipe with new cats.

You should be able to get a quality aftermarket part.

Have you repalced the PIP or the whole distributor? Check timing with a light also with the spout out.
