    Serpentine belt

    if its eating belts then im going to say: belt tensioner this happened on my 00' and my 92' you can take it off and it does not look like anything is wrong with it but when the bearing goes it will cause the belt to walk off the pulley's and get eat alive.

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) How important is the killer dowl pit to replace?

    93 cummins gvw 40,000

    and when seeing the thread title i thought surely not LOL, pulling i wouldn't worry to much getting stopped would be a whole new ball of wax WoW!!! and i agree i hope his trip is short, just my opinion but the risk outweighs the means when you seen what can happen from an overloaded hauler.

    Chrysler & Cummins Restart Light Duty Diesel

    could have been a test truck thats what i was thinking, as far as a 2500 rebadged truck, nope, this had 1/2 ton axles so that wasn't it, the guy driving looked to be in mid 40's and up was on a cell. V8 diesel i don't know, to me and knowing what a 6 sounds like i would say no on the V8 just my...

    Power and Getrags
