Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Thanks to J&H

[csutton7]

Well I have to give a big thanks out to the J&H boys out of Redding, CA--Joel, Harvey and Troy---my flexplate was cracked in four places and was soon to leave me stranded, but I managed to nurse it up to their shop and we tore into it this weekend--installed a new DTT SFI rated billet flexplate, new custom sized billet output shaft and fabricated a new crossmember to make it easier in the future for removal-so now the transmission should be pretty much bullet proof with all the billet DTT parts from front to rear and a custom valve body by J&H ---these guys are top notch and are worth the trip to their shop for transmission and performance work---thanks guys---chris

I didn't know DTT was selling SFI flywheels. How much are they asking for them, if you don't mind me asking? The only site that currently lists a SFI flywheel is suncoast

Lmills,



I copied this from the DTT site, they have been selling them since the February time frame:



Diesel Transmission Technology ( DTT ) in conjunction with Reactor Products is pleased to announce the release of the new Billet Aluminium 29. 1 SFI certified Flex Plate with removable ring gear.



The custom DTT/REACTOR 5. 9 Cummins Flex Plate was originally designed for extreme HP application trucks, but first Generation Dodge owners & Billet Cover Converter customers will also be able address their flex plate breakage issues.



Lenco, Bruno, & Pro Street customers consulted all concurred along with Lawrence from DD & Bill from DTT that Reactors 20 years of flex plate experience & expertise made them the obvious choice to work with in the creation of the Custom SFI approved flex plate for the Cummins Diesel.



With the DTT/Reactor 29. 1 SFI certified flex plate you are ensured all the safety standards have been adhered to and each flex plate bears the 29. 1 SFI certification tag with its own serial #.



Precision CNC machined from solid Billet Aluminium the DTT/ REACTOR flex plate provides MINIMUM rotating mass while still offering MAXIMUM

strength.



The DTT/ REACTOR flex plate provides superior overall performance as the aluminium absorbs a majority of the engine harmonics, creating a smoother ride resulting in reduced engine bearing wear.

lmills---you need to call them for pricing as I haven't got the bill yet for everything--but it's a sweet looking pc that indeed looks unbreakable--the DTT flexplate is billet aluminum and I believe the suncoast one is steel, but I could be wrong---



yes mr dressler the roads up here are dreadfull!!!!... ... chris

 

[lmills]

ok, thanks for the heads up. I will give them a call today.
