My check engine light came on, so I got a diagnostic. The mechanic's report said I needed to replace the bank one catalytic converter, which I believe on this truck is the front one. However, I am having a difficult time finding what I need online. Any idea what I should search for or any good auto part sites? And can it be a universal cat converter, or does it have to be California legal?

The converters are 50 state standard so you do not have a different one for CA emissions. If the front converter needs to be replaced I attached the info below on the part number and location.

Here is a guide that will help with replacing these as they are pretty standard:
