@Mopar1973Man Will the 00' pcm work with the 02' ecu if the 02' ecu of flashed to be (auto) instead of its original (manual)? *I need/want to keep electronic cruise control. 2nd option- if not* Can the 00' pcm be updated to work with the flashed 02' ecu (auto) ? Absolute worst case*, I still have them 00' ecu. Then it will all be 00' electronics, ecu, pcm etc. And if need be, hopefully they can still add the 3 cyl hugh idle and 6 cyl high idle. Ill just have to either live without cc or try and mess with the parts left over to make it work. Just to note the engine will still be the 02' HO but with a SO pump. *I guess another curious question is: What all can auto computer specialists actually program with ecu and pcm for our trucks?

ATF <-> Coolant cooler you can ditch if you have enough to keep your transmission temperature under control. ECM and PCM will need to be flashed to match what you are putting together.

Idk if I'd attempt a full auto trans rebuild. The nv5600 wasn't extremely hard just tedious. Im looking at 9k eitherway I choose firepunk or randys. Only difference is randys is for 650 hp and firepunk is at 850 hp. Don't know which is better still only the fact that Ill have a really nice buffer zone for hp goals for FP rated at 850, cause I'll never hit that with this build unless I spray. Still not overly sure I have to have the ant eater, it would make "trans tunes" a cake walk. Still lots of questions about ecu and pcm though. Haven't had anyone suggest any helpful tips or answers to those yet....?

Im not super excited about 2nd gens or even diesels in general but even still this truck is winning me over again. Had trim on the bed so i thought for sure it was a 12v. After knocking on the door and asking if it might be for sale Even though its a 24 and a dually i couldnt pass it up so went got cash then spent the next hour cleaning battery cables. Truck was dead after sitting apmost 2 years. Did get her going and drove it home. Then virtually almost day one the oem exhaust literlt fell out. So i did a 4" stainless axle dump. Then later fit it to the bed Put a 2din head unit in best mod so far. Fabbed a winch bumper. Then 10k miles go by and transmission gets what sounds like rocks in it. Spent some time refreshed trans and replaced all broken bits. This is atleast the second time its been refreshed Exhaust hanger is a jeep sway bar bracket. Ive found these to be the best hangers ive ever made or seen. I think thats about it for now. Buying parts for the transmission kinda broke me. I thought real hard about putting a 47re in it. If id had a spare 47 it would be a no brainer. Next must change is the mirrors. With these things its like brail to change lanes So nice to be able to share pictures This truck does have a pac brake i do t much care to tow with little trucks so i never use it I did measure outlet ill eventually run 4" all the way. Calippers say its a true 4" outlet https://youtube.com/shorts/ETMieKWGT5s?is=opa80VIvYXaGIQvm

Does the oem 2500 and 3500 share same box. Had no issues with my 3500 steering bix steering 35-37" tires for over 200k now

Did you do this clutch install? How where the chamferd holes for the pressure plate to bolt to.

I dig up the stand alone control you need to shift a eltronic 47. This is a badass project You dont need the computer and all that. You did a 5600 so the 47 will be easy peasy. I just did my nv4500 and found i preferd building the 47 Throw gpz clutches in it with a few extra per kit. Do all billett upgrades you can afford aply pistons ect. Upgrade imput shaft with a good valve body. 2 grand goes along ways building a 47 even Spend most your money on the the tourge convertor. 47 will a decent build holds 600 easy 5th gear wont fall off and just plain is way more fun to drive. Youl stay on boost chirpn through the gears going sideways down the street. I just spent 2000 grand on my 4500 for virtually little to no gain just replaced all the broken stuff. For the same not broken stuff. Its kinda sad actually. https://shop.firepunk.com/products/firepunk_engineering_anteater

Got to thiking the hx40 is not normally a 4.4" vband. I think this might actually be what you need. https://ebay.io/m/oCjzDQ My turbo is a 62mm s300 with all kindsa funkery its short with 3rd gen charge pipeing and the 4.4" outlet. I bought the adapter and welded it to 4" pipe. Its not realy 4 3/8" i think thats the outer vband clamping part. I think these vband weld on adapters will fit over 3.5" so you can (should)easily be able weld on where you need it. Though verify what you have. Not sure why dap says its 4.4" or why you think it is. Also completly confused, truck currently has a hx40 and 4" downpipe installed I looked up the k27 outlet size and its 3" so im even more confused.

Theyre on ebay. Weld on vband 4.4"adapter https://ebay.io/m/KSds2v

I put right at 10k miles on the truck and the transmission decided it was done. Its been built atleast ounce before Heres a quick vid. Im wanting to do a filter set up as i feel the trans bearing went to **** mainly due to neglet.

Testing My carnage pile. As you can see the main was already updated. Went with parts from allstate, itw, and transtare. Steerd clear of tourqe king because i feel they are same parts for twice the cost Looking to fab a spin on filter set up from scratch on passenger pto position. Offcourse the damn internet led me here to this circus. God i hste to love this damn place.

Yeah I called DAP last week. They said they would check the wearhouse and call me back. Never called back. But i emailed in and they said I need a HX35-HE351 Adapter Sweet! It goes from 3" to 4 3/8" Awesome!

Might try contacting DAP

New to this forum, but not the cummins forum. I bought this truck a month ago, turbo bearings are shot. I bought a Borg Warner K27 turbo. Truck is set up with a 4 inch down pipe with an HX40 4 3/8" Flange. I need an adapter to go from 3" inch ( stock size ) up to the 4 3/8" flange. I've called several diesel specialty shops. No luck.

Any auto trans guys with aftermarket coolers?

Anyone, any thoughts?

Anyone?

I just ordered the billet filter head from Pure Diesel Power because I also hate the stupid factory housing. I've had hell with mine and I'm sick of screwing with it. I was just gonna go with the 94-96 head kit from Geno's but the one from PDP has a nice little port for my fuel pressure gauge and I'm excited to see how well it turns out once I get it installed. 89-02 Dodge 5.9L Cummins PDP39256 Billet Fuel Filter Head...

Diesel Auto Power has the black fuel hose 1/2.

Yes - well, not anymore. It was cracking pretty much along the full length.

just following up finally to close this thread so these pumps dont have a yellow wire, even though it really looks like i have a chewed up yellow wire, that was actually an old paper tag of some sort. i found a replacement connector and this weekend i dug into it. i took the wire loom off and found absolutely no wire damage. however, the outside edges of the connector were bowed out convex like and the rubber seal was smashed up inside the connector. i remembered reading on here about how these pins can lose their ability to make good connection so i proceeded with the repair. and it seems to have fixed the problem. i cleared the codes and after 4 or 5 trips i have not seen any codes come back. whats interesting is i had a p0220 and a p1689, neither of which have come back after replacing this connector. truck is now running great, sort of... in the process of this repair my lift pump stopped running but thats a different issue than this topic is really intended for

Uploaded some pics of some plugs that are unused behind the dash. Been curious of what they were intended for. Any thoughts?
