Yes the trans is all stock..I do think that the trans will get upgraded, almost a givin on any diesel with an auto. lol If I do decide to do some upgrades I was looking at the 3k governor spring kit, #6 or #8 plate. I also was curious about the stock turbo upgrade that Scott did in issue 74, I...

I happen to find a 97 2500 4x4 with only 90,731mi for a really good price. Truck is in really really good shape and all stock minus a snow plow and a gooseneck hitch..Came from a guy that used it very lightly, only plowed his small driveway and hauled a horse trailer for a couple of years...

I have recently done this and thought i might share some insight... . first off if you have big hands you might want to find someone with smaller hands to get the back nuts off the egr cooler and manifold... second if you have a 15mm crows foot wrench then plan on using it. . i did not...

going to be taking a trip to montana later next month and thought about unplugging the egr. just not sure if i want to do it for the trip out there, maybe i will just try it on the way back. anyone have any gauges( cts insight or scout II) that might be able to share some numbers that have...

any new findings/problems with the "free mod"? how is everyone doing with some more miles on the unplugged egr?. . thanks

well let me tell you why i bought a diesel and traded in my gas: i ordered a 02 chevy silverado: 1500,ext cab, 4wd with 4. 10 gears... why well i wanted a bigger truck then my last s10, 4. 10 gears because it would help with towing, 1500 because who needs a 3/4 or 1 ton. after 118000...

I agree 100% the EPA is to blame. . Ask any cummins engineer that if it was not for the EPA would they still have put the egr and dpt filter on? The answer: "absolutly not". I bought a cummins for much of the same reason that you did: reliability and longevity. Do i wish i would have bought a...

After reading all of this i have a couple of questions. first why did you not buy a Power wagon?? would have been great for you. . winch, low gear ratio plus the ability to tow a little extra weight(vs half ton). . second. . i do not understand why the members on here try to convince people that...

"You are going to get knocked down, but it is getting up that matters. " --he told me that when i started playing football but i think it seems to work in life as well.

does the 68rfe still pump fluid while in park? if so do you still have to put it in neutral to check the level?

sorry about that i have an 07 6. 7 4x4...

thanks has anyone had a chance to compare the two? just wondering if the dodge manual is the exact same as the cummins?

want to order a service manual. talked to a cummins service center, he said he needs the serial number off the block. (not vin number) woundering where it is located? thanks

thanks for the information. i am always interested in reading about new information about the cummins diesel.

new to the site and would like some advise on finding good credible information on diesel engines, how they work and how to make them better. i like to read about tuners but don't like the idea of dumping fuel and letting the engine figure the rest out. this is the main reason i joined this...
