Disintegrated or melted ceramic monolith blocks choke exhaust flow, escalating cylinder head temperatures, killing low-end torque, and triggering persistent P0420 catalytic efficiency trouble codes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Engineering Solution\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt with a heavy-gauge stainless steel outer casing, this direct-replacement assembly houses a high-flow ceramic honeycomb substrate engineered for maximum surface area and gas conversion. It eliminates restrictive backpressure, withstands off-camber trail vibration, and mounts cleanly to OEM exhaust flanges without cutting or custom fabrication.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"border-collapse: collapse; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0; font-size: 14px;\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFitment\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e1996-2000 Jeep Cherokee\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEngine \/ Chassis\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e4.0L AMC 242 (PowerTech) \/ XJ\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStock Output\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e190 hp \/ 225 lb-ft (Approx)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart Number\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003eBER453945\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1996-2000 Jeep Cherokee 4.0L L6 (Direct Replacement)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInterchange References: 0793054, 63239, 645327, 15820, 83239, 10150\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Jeep Trail-Ready Standard\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEngineered to endure severe off-road vibration, high thermal cycles, and heavy towing stress, this converter delivers structural durability and clean exhaust scavenging without compromising ground clearance or trail reliability.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VelocityMax","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50487871045880,"sku":"DS-E3R9E1RJI","price":99.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/1290\/2648\/files\/catalytic-converter-for-jeep-cherokee-1996-2000-4-0l-1.jpg?v=1789142150","url":"https:\/\/performancechiptuning.com\/fr\/products\/catalytic-converter-for-jeep-cherokee-1996-2000-4-0l","provider":"Performance Chip Tuning","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
