2nd Generation Dodge 24 Valve Powertrain

So I came across a web link with some great information. I’ll leave a link below. This website tells you all about maintenance intervals and fluid amounts etc. I plan to change my diff gear fluid soon and I plan to use Scaeffers 75w140 gear oil. Iv heard talk about adding a friction modifier? I’m curious if anyone knows about this stuff and how much is needed per axle? http://www.cumminshub.com/5.9-24v-cummins-maintenance-schedule.html

Recently I installed gauges in my truck with the suspicion that it had a low boost issue. After installing the gauge I have a peak of 16psi with my xzt+ module turned on. From the research I gathered it should be a minimum of 22 psi+. Last year I performed a leak test and didn’t discover any boost leaks, but I plan performing another test to make sure. The truck overall just doesn’t have the power it should. It never smokes, and the check engine light has come on in the past for a crank position sensor, but is off now. Just looking for suggestions on the low boost issue and lack of power. I was curious if the waste gate might be open, but figuring it does buil…

I have a 99 3500 4wd that I have put 2 pinion seals in within the last 2 months. It keeps eating the bottom half of the seal off not sure what's going on. The last time I put a seal in it I put a speedy sleeve in as well I'm not sure the issue any help would be great.

Tracked my surging down to the speed sensor my truck runs perfect with the sensor unplugged but of course no cruise control and annoying lights I've replaced the wiring and senor already anyone have any ideas? 2001 h.o. 6 speed fass 150 edge juice with attitude

So I have a 2002 5.9 dodge 3500 SLT automatic. Not the best turbo but I wan’t to get the most out of it. I have an iQuad v2 tuner with 10levels plus a boost fooler. Never go above level 5 due too stock transmission. Id say I have lightly modified it. Larger exhaust minifold, 5inch turbo back, 275 RV injectors, Airdog ll 4G 165, AFE intake. I have gauges on everything to monitor. The most I can get is 23pds of boost. I have heard some guys tighten something to where the waste gate stays open. Is that do able on my turbo or would anybody even recommended it. It would be cool to see like 30-32pds of boost but I know at the same time it’s not going to be any better …

If there's already a thread could someone link me it? My gearbox on my 99 is leaking pretty badly, like from full it'll leak out in a day, and instead of just resealing the gearbox can I just install a 4th gen steering box? I remember someone I follow on Instagram putting one on his 2nd gen (I don't know the year) but I didn't know if it was possible on a 99 since it isn't the newer front end. Anything helps. Thanks!

So I lucked out on a edge juice cts, but it came with the wrong map plug. My truck is the 01 and it has the plug for the 99. From what I've been able to find on the Internet is that there different voltages. One being 1.0 and the other being .5, I was wondering if I could just use a resistor to drop the voltage or if there's more to it than that. I'm assuming the map sensor output to the computer is millivolts?

Can someone give me suggestions on which billet tappet cover to buy? I've changed the seal once already.... I don't want to do it again so I'm going billet... I've heard Keating Machine tappet covers are good? What's everyone's opinion on brands and longevity?

02 3500 5.9 ho Quad cab 6 speed 227k Ok, a couple of times recently I noticed a slight hesitation while attempting to accelerate. Happens when rpms are just above idle while I'm trying to accelerate from 2nd gear to 3rd gear. Feels kind of like a dead pedal but not completely. Points to ponder: - Issue seems to happen only if the truck is cold and I don't give it a chance to properly warm up - Seems fine once truck is warm. - it's not mis-firing or sputtering, more like the pedal is momentarily not completely responding. - I am NOT getting any cel or codes associated with this. - 2 weeks ago installed the timbo a…

I notice members from Europe and other places joining this site... I've read in the past the the US has higher HFFR ratio than Europe. I understand that is the main reason why many in the US add two stroke oil, to help with lubeing up the VP44. Out of curiosity if you buy fuel out of US how many miles do you get on your vp44. And welcome

Having problems with tranny staying in overdrive. If and or when it does wanna shift into od as soon as I let outta the throttle it will clunk kinda hard depending on the speed when it happens it will damn near put ya in the windshield when it happens but when it first started i was in the fast lane and someone cut me off so I got outta the throttle and it was like someone reached over and pulled it down into low side so I stayed outta it for a sec then got back in it, it tached the rpms up to 2800 and it acted like it was stick in for a few min and then finally shifted since then it has gotten worse it started about a month or so ago read a few things and talked to a few…

Are they anything special and where do you get them? And what is the magic number? 7 comes to mind but not sure. Could just search for this but thought it may be a worth while topic for others to read.

I've come to the conclusion after combing through the internet looking for answers as to why my PS pump pukes fluid while the engine is off, that there must be something wrong with the accumulator and/or the check valve. Its amazing how many people post problems with these systems but dont bother to let anyone know if they problem was ever solved... So that said, I have two options. I can buy a rebuild kit for $50, a reman unit for $200 (kinda wondering how reliable it would be), or a brand new unit for $300. Being that I have the tools to rebuild something, it certainly doesnt mean I care to and that it doesnt mean it'll work as it should after the rebuil…

Here you go gang! I compiled a full wiring diagram PDF file for you to all enjoy for your 2002 Dodge Trucks. This is a heck of alot easier to read compared to the Dodge FSM manual that is just good old black and white.

Has any of you had this problem? My wipers don't park back to normal position after using washer fluid function, and also the intermittent selection malfunction sometime. I'll set it to low speed but it will almost be on high and sometimes ok. And for the wipers to be at park position, I have to catch them at that point and shut the switch off. I had similar problem happen on a different vehicle and after changing wiper control on steering wheel it didn't help and ended up being a wiper motor. Where should I look first? Thank you.

hey guys, just a quick question that i cant find the answer to. im trying to hook up a lock up switch. i have the tst diagram, but i cannot for the life of me figure out which kind of "jumper" i need to use. searching for a couple hours last night yielded no results to what i was trying to find. so, if someone has a link to the jumper i need, or an install video, or any help i would appreciate it!

Good morning, I am not sure this is proper place to post, but does anyone know where I can get a grid heater harness for my 1999. I took my off this past spring and I cant find it and want to hook up the grid heater for winter. Tim

I have a 2001 dodge 3500 5.9 diesel and the alternator went out we replaced the alternator and now my transmission will shift up and down sometimes, most of the time it drive normal please help

I thought I would share my experience with the clutch replacement job on my truck. I just did a clutch replacement on my truck after a good service life of 297,000 miles. However, in hindsight, I know now that I should have replaced the clutch much sooner, perhaps at around 225,000 or 250,000 miles. The primary failure was the pilot bearing which I had noticed recently because at times there was difficulty getting the transmission into gear with the engine running. Eventually, the needle bearings were spit out and the shifting problem went away. However, the failed pilot bearing damaged the bearing surface area on the input shaft to the transmission. I re…

Need some help. I have to replace the camshaft/lifter inspection cover on the driver side of the engine. After removing the starter and the fuel filter bowl and lift pump bracket It looks like I am going to have to remove the injector pump to accomplish this. Does the Injector pump have to come off to remove this cover.
