Cats started in 74/75 in the US. That left ten years of Cats for the CJs.

VA didn't have a choice. Only California was allowed to write their own
auto emissions laws, the other 49 states had to take what the federal
government handed down. This meant that auto makers had to meet a maximum
of 2 "clean air" standards, instead of 50 standards.

Unleaded WAS: What's this 360 worth?
I think that you are mistaken, Bill. General Motors, for one, shipped all
their new 1975 cars with cats to comply with the 1970 Clean Air Act and I
don't imagine that AMC got special dispensation. See:
8. GM Powertrain - gmpowertrain.com - About Powertrain - History -
<URL:http://www.gm.com/automotive/gmpowertrain/about/history/history4.htm>
[Quote]-------------------
GM introduces the catalytic converter, a technology it developed in
the 1960s. All 1975 model cars sold in the U.S. and Canada are
equipped with these catalytic converters to comply with provisions of
the Federal Clean Air Act.
[Unquote]-----------------
My 1975 Motor's auto manual gives a rather detailed description of
catalytic converters. Just for giggles, the "detune" specs for California
engines start in 1972.
This timeline puts the introduction of catalytic converters and unleaded
gas at 1975:
