Catalytic smeels on warm up

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have a 95 4runner with a 3.4 in it. The cat smells on warm up, is it bad or one or both of the O2 sensors? If I relace the 02 sensor shopuld I do both? No one carries the rear 02 sensor in stock so it seams like they are not often replaced. Also, my cat does not rattle.
Thanks

is it a 95 with the 3.0 or a 96 with the 3.4? Did you do an engine swap in the 95? If it is the 95 3.0 there is only one O2 sensor.
