Archived HELP!!! (2004 dodge ram turbo oil line needed)

[LudwigC]

I have a 2004 5. 9 and the oil line (Dodge p/n 68002982AA) is on a national backlog with Dodge...



My vehicle is now sitting at the dealer awaiting this part with an August 2009 ETA...



Does anyone have one of these that I can buy?



Thanks

Chris

any place that builds hydrulic lines should be able to build you one

i had one made for my 2000 at half the price of the dealer

Thanks and good call.



I'll drop off the assembly at the spot that works on my equipment tomorrow when I get back to RI...

After multiple calls to the dealer to get the engine serial number, I called Cummins directly and they had 150+ units available... AARRGGHHH



Shipped directly from them to me FedEx overnight for under $100 including the fittings...



Maybe Dodge should call Cummins and pick up a couple spares to add to the dealer inventory?



I'm still going to have a spare made up like ryecreek mentioned above so to avoid this situation again.
