My 22re truck been releasing these awful fumes, i guess is like rotten eggs? umm any reason why it would do that? is it running rich? I passed smog 2 months ago but at that time it didn't smell.

havent heard of this problem for a while. This problem usually occured when leaded gas was used in a vehicle designed for unleaded fuel which in turn caused a reaction in the cat which caused the smell.

May also be the gas you are running? What brand do you use? My buddies use to stink also, but he ran anything that was cheap, myself all I run is Chevron.

If the o2 sensor is bad/letting emissions out of spec, it will kill the cat.
