242,000 time for new VP44

Just turned over 242,000 miles and I'm in need of a new VP44. Ordered one from Chip @ Bluechip the other day, waiting on it to come in. This has been a great truck... 01 Dually Laramie, 5 speed, 4" exhaust, Adrenaline with Pulse, and all the bells & whistles.



Have had to replace the lift pump three times (1 under warranty), VP44 injection pump (under warranty), one clutch, 2 sets of brakes, and 4 sets of tires.

My current 98. 5 is at 210,000 I don't know how many lift pumps and VP44's,

My prior 99 with a 53 block was at 295,000 when I got rid of it, no cracks yet.

I have a friend with a bone stock 98. 5 auto with 300,000 and (I know you won't believe this) original lift pump, original VP44, and original auto. Just uses it as a car and he put all the miles on it.

 

[MCondit]

104,321 as of today. VP44 at 72,000 replaced w/ blue chip X pump. Track bar upgrade done somwhere around 45,000. Origanal was OK. Just wanted to avoid potential problems. 3 lift pumps. Upgraded to a FASS. Time for ball joints. Frt brakes at 48,000 and again at 101,000, rear brakes at 101,000.

[AClayton]

132K on my truck



bought truck 4 yrs ago since then:



new track bar

new front-end

2 sets of tires due to Dodge front-end geometry

1 lift pump... . FASS now-no problems

2 complete high performance transmissions before finally getting a Goerend

1 set of pads for front

brake line for rear brakes rusted through

ECM

new VP-44 still acting up

new dash

starter contacts

new shocks twice

rear end probably needs work-dragging one and spinning other around turns!





before buying truck from BIL he installed a complete new front-end also including new steering box,tie rods,new tb and new tires... . lasted about a year until everything needed replaced again except for steering box. Now that has play again and needs replacement. Truck will pull anything you hook to it,gets great mileage doing it but what a huge money pit and why on earth Dodge decided to put a 1/2 million mile Cummins into a POS truck chassis is beyond me. Including mods of course,which do not count I know,I could have bought a brand new 3/4 ton gasser and paid the mileage penalty 3 times over. Diesels are powerhouses but realistically,you pay the price to own one. I have so much money into that I cannot get rid of it and right when I think I have spent enough to make it reliable again,something else happens! JUNK!!!



I really don't understand how you guys get 5 and 600K out of these trucks... . I have trouble getting to 130K. May be I got a lemon.
