Man I need help - BIG TIME

Anybody know where I can get a Catalytic Converter for an 02 E450, looks like part number 5E212. The dealer wants like $1,200
I have been searhing for three days for a univerasal, but no luck.
If anyone can point me in the right direction, it owuld be appreciated.

I just bought the motorhome and the guy before me took it off, and now it won't pass California emmisions to regiter it.https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/n...ewthread&f=49#

California law states that the SELLER is responsible for the vehicle passing emissions. Make the seller correct it or take the vehicle back. The law puts this entirely on the seller, it is not your problem to deal with.

Why would you pay for this? Did you get a screeming deal on the motorhome? The seller in CA is responsible for making sure the vehicle passes.

Why am I paying for this? Actually it will cheaper to pay for it thanget into a battle with the private seller, who I'm sure will tell me to pound salt, then I'll get Pi$$ed off and sue him the the sheister lawyers will cost m emega bucks, and the time and energy will wipe out my whol esummer, etc, etc. etc.
Would I love to call the guy up and say "can you send me a grand to pay for this", and him say "sure give me you adress" - I think the the lovely people in the middle east will kiss and makup before that happens.
Sometimes it's just easier to swollow hard and move on.

Thanks for the props guys, The only problem with these parts are there large and heavy and UPS charges big bucks for stuff like this. We dont try and make money on freight, we just try and not lose money on shipping. But if you are in So Cal I have a few friends down there I can still hook you up so you dont have to pay shipping.

San Deigo, San Berdo, Inland empire.

But you'll owe me a beer!
