Default ses light just came on

i was planning on doing headers and exhaust when my cats go, my ses light came on and i think its a rear o2 sensor, is it safe to wait till a cat goes bad?

why wait till the cats go bad, if that even happens. just put the headers/exhaust on and get the rear o2's deleted.

just guessing i need to go to autozone or something and get it checked but ya i planned on getting the rear o2's deleted.

firehawk i wouldnt wait to long a couple months at most, right after the kaplan is a good time. wait to long and you will start to worry more that you forgot info. i waited about 3 or 4 months
