Pops just bought a 325/600 Cummins

[JBlackwell]

He is spoiled. He got the 4 door long bed 4x4 with an automatic.

It has Cummins 600 on the sticker so I presume it is the 325hp.





Had a question..... I can't find on the window sticker or on the rear end to tell what ratio is has. I know it runs 72mph at 2,000rpm's. Pretty truck, can't imagine spending that much money on a work truck, but whatever floats his boat.



I bought me another Cummins too but mine is a '94 not a '04. LOL



Is there anything I need to look out for when servicing the truck?





Appreciate any help,

JD





P. S. What is up with those little 265/70 tires that come on it? What bigger tires are you guys running on your 17" wheels?

I dont know about the new trucks but on my 99 there is a

sticker on the underside of the hood that tells all about your

ratio and more.

just open the hood and look up.

72 MPH @ 2000 RPM sounds like 3. 73's.



4:10's should be listed on the sticker as an option if it has them.

There is a sticker/decal located in the glove box that will tell you what ratio you have.

I swapped out the puny tires for bfg 315/70r17 at about 170 miles. They fill the wheel well and only rub when you crank it all the way. They rub on the link arms i try not to turn it that sharp anyways cause the powersteering pump doesn't like it. Truck looks sweet with them on it.

kevin, you didn't waste any time!



hows the truck doing? there is a TSB on the "600" for a miss at mid-rpm... let me know if your truck does anything funny lately
