2nd Generation Dodge Reliability / Performance

J-Hook '01-'02 Automatics (for HY Turbos) Dodge Cummins (182555) Here is a quick way to increase your boost . Available for the '01-'02 24 Valve Cummins engine equipped with the 47RE automatic transmission. The J-Hook regulates the waste gate, facilitating greater boost numbers which rise even higher as performance modifications are added. The higher volume of air will also help keep exhaust temperatures down. Has any used or know about these? Just asking before I bought one.

hey there guys know of anybody have a used jake sitting around

After 16 years I think it’s time to breath some new life into the old Cummins and get it ready for the next milestone. And do it without spending a fortune On the real short list , like hopefully in the next few weeks I’ve decided to 1. Install RV 275 injectors ( I know a little late on the originals) 2. Quad XZT or edge Ez, I havnt decided yet, but with my mild tranny I got to take it easy. 3 finish the trans. Lock up switch Then on the long list which will just keep growing is 1 figure out if I want to spend the big bucks to rebuild 47re or just replace with a manual. 2. Exhaust brake ( I think I would be much happier with a manual …

This is a small improvement over the stock bumper, I am thinking that if I hit a deer out here at least my truck will not be hurt. It did lower the front end down a little, not sure if I want to get a leveling kit, readjust the headlights or just build a stout rear bumper to compensate? It still has a few minor things that needs to be done to it, not too bad for a home built bumper and at least it is on.

A few pictures of my 99 CTD. I bought it with 316,XXX and it is still purring along. The heaviest load so far is about 26,000 pounds, it was a load of tire troughs on a goose neck flatbed trailer. The truck gets about 20 mpg empty, but only 10 mpg while hauling 26,000 pounds , not bad for a 99.

I got a call from my son on Tuesday, his Peugeot Boxer tipper has stopped on a busy crossroads 8 in the morning Got there 11.6v at the battery, so I disconnected the quad and jump started his van off of my truck, once running as soon as I disconnected the jump leads it stopped, alternator dead and the stupid ECM will not let the engine run, didn't pay any attention to my truck or the gauges just towed the thing home, our drive is long but narrow so my truck is blocked in by this van Fast forward a day, new alternator fitted to the Peugeot (what a job, and low and behold there are no belt adjusters for alternator and PS belt, both are "stretch fit" which means an…

All original VP, auto transmission. Did change to torque converter though. It failed at about 150,000.

I just installed the Edge Comp box last night on my 98.5 Ram. What I'm truely hopeing for is better mileage. It seems to be the only piece that I was missing that most other guy's getting great mileage seem to have.My question is this ... What setting would be best for getting the best mileage increase? Right now I have it set at level 3 with a low boost level also at 3. Where do you have your's set at?Thanks in advance !! ;)

This is my stock 01. I have added the BHAF, 4wl low 2 wl lock out, a Pac brake, heated tow mirrors, Raptor. Ibought the truck 31/2 yr ago with 169k I now have 223k. It has the 6 speed HO with 353 rears and on the last trip to UP Mi. I got 22.4 MPG. I have changed the damper to Fluid Damper as mine was falling apart this was a great mod. And ther are a few other changes that are in my sig. The Kenworth in the pix is what I drive at work. It has a 500 hp ISX with a 13 speed and 370 rears. It is a pretty good truck to make a living with.

(next were about to install on board air and bags on rear)

Looking for some advice, about to pull the trigger on the purchase of a FASS 165 lift pump. Currently the trucks fuel system is completely stock with the stock lift pump being in the engine bay still. Do I need 1/2" fuel hose or does the kit come with it? I keep seeing "big line" kits on @dieselautopower website and want to make a single purchase and not regret having a better supply/return system. I've read that other members are using their stock fuel filter in conjunction w/FASS lift pump system, is this correct as any added protection I want to take advantage of? Would I require a "Big Line" kit if I went this route vs. just using whatever FASS…

2001 Dodge Ram 3500 5.9 cummins diesel. I have code po501 and after thinking back this Code started right after I changed my tires from 31inches tall to 35inches tall. I did any way check ABS Sensor/Replaced anyway. VSS/Replaced it anyway. Apps sweep test, test perfectly Replaed it anyway. So I am back to It has to be a programming issue with the ecm/pcm. I had dealership inter in the correct tire size and set the RPM's @800. Gps we will say shows 71mph when the dash speedometer reads almost 69-70mph. Is there a different setting the dealership should be doing also?

So while Mike is happy with the power of the quad he is struggling to get good mpg out of the unit, unlike Tyler and myself. Bothersome because we didn't even have to try it just came with the lack of smoke. I think Tyler did 21 on his first try with his firehouse injectors and I did 24.7 without trying with my 100's Mike however is struggling to hit 20. We are all running the same timing map, but different tuning on the canbus fueling. I am however down at nearly sea level now running Mike's tune and I am smoke free so I know Mike's tune is WAY under fueled since he has 50's. I am betting Mike has get away with a starting…
