My 02 is at 370k oem radiator. But its been leaking alittle the last couple years. I had to put a radiator in dads 04 at about 200k leaking bad at tank seam. My 98 appears to not be leaking at 240k now. Its only leak is the damn vacumn pump.

Fass titanium 95gph fuel system pump motor replacement
So 165 pump dropped in place if 95 pump. Pump kicks on truck runns smoother get in freeway hit cruise and lose fuel pressure wtf limp a few miles home she actually dies this time. Roll off the side of road check pump fuse unplug fuel pump relay plug it back in cycle pump a few times wtf Then crank no go cycle pump a few more times pump working again fffff crack two injector lines crank a bit then snug up line that pushed fuel. Crank again she fires running on 5 hurry and snug last line slam hood hurry home. Had about 20 people drive by thankfully noone stopped Get home barely again pump silent at idle hmmm So it was never a pump issue. I noticed when i turned key on pump didnt cycle but runs with truck idling. Thinking relay so i go cycling key on my 02, pump cycles for a few seconds like it sposed to. Yank relay off it and toss it on the 98 cycling key on pump comes to life then shuts off like it should. Wtf so i jump on free way get fuel etc jump back on freeway again. No issues now. Fun stuff. What will it be next . Everything on this trucks oem other than fass titanium. Bought 60 miles to get to work tommorrow so well see.

Fass titanium 95gph fuel system pump motor replacement
So i spent quute alot of time today on hold at fass also emailed them twice. Have a few hours into this with out success. Figured out the rpt1005 fits my fass titanium directly of wich is discontinued The rpts1005 is its replacement few upgrades whisper technology etc. These are 165gph units. The power connection plug might be differnt apparently fass changed plug 4 years ago. Orderd rpt10005 through diesel performance parts i got my valair clutch through them. The guys at diesel performance parts were very helpfull did some digging themselves to be sure that the rpt and rpts are interchangeable other than maybe plug. Fass not so much. Anyways thats all i got Guess nothing on the truck will take a **** sitn in driveway waiting for pump.

Fass titanium 95gph fuel system pump motor replacement
Can i replace the 95gph motor with a 165gph. Its only like 12 bucks more. Fass is closed but id like to order a motor tonight this one sounds kinda like the transmission with rocks in it. I was cruising home today in 5th at 70 trucked buck so im thinking you peice of ****. Put it in 4th and stood on it cause im thinking you freaking pos trans. Pushing throttle only made it buck and studder. Verifued **** i got no fuel and made it home to mtn home going 60 in fith. Truck stumbling pulling all the steep grades to mtn home. Ughhhh ever werk so far having this truck is something. I did back on pump motor with a rachet and that only made it shut completly off. I do have a airdog raptor spare but the fuel line are different because it doesnt have filters. Thanks for any help.

gona put my 98 dually build stuff here
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

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

3" Turbo outlet to HX40 4 3/8" Exhaust downpipe?
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.

I thought you didn't even do the work on your transmission. Fall out comment shhhhh lets not go there. I think 48re has a tv drive motor instead of cable. Power Driven diesel in utah is great source for 47 48 information. Ive spent time on tge phone with him.. Ounce i started making phone calls i gained far more information than what is on forumns. Dynamic and i also probly spent an hour on tge phone. Hes great guy full of information years of it. A source that popped out of nowhere was transgo. I did a full valve body reprogram this goes far beyon a basic shift kit. I was in over my head. Called transgo literally in tears. He walked me through it step by step dug in his years of 47re notes to talk about what he and his customers found to work. Talked about my expectations how i use the truck what tourge convertor the stall. Transmission internals so much help was given to me by transgo. These people are valuable beyond what words can explain and the are not posting on forumns or face book. Mike also falls under this value umbrella his forumn though a huge pain the *** has been collecting information as mike learns and grows as a cummins nut as well many others who contribute they're years of knowledge gained on these great trucks we love. Getting off the internet and making phone calls was an incredible eye opener for me. They in my mind are virtually gods and are willing to share everything they learned. Also for what its worth the 47 can hold far more power than the nv4500 or g56. If your building a truck with real power you just dont use a manual

Guys im back and i need help
Part of why im here is i saw your picture in my phone going through my contacts. I think its green though lol. Definitely a good look on you. No 5th gear is still happy. Truck is only sporting power or slighly less power than it left the factory with. You got a 7.3 didnt you? My 98 is currently at husky auto in boise getting tail lights all buttoned up on the hillsborrow bed. My coyote f150 has been my work truck for the last few years. The 02 dodge is pretty much retired to just firewood duty. My old mans pretty much retired so im kinda a one man show in the excavation scene. The t800 does 99% of the machine moving now. I have no desire to even yank a 10k skidsteer around with pickups. I haul both the 10t excavator and skidsteer on the t800 together and often tow my pickup to the next jobsite. Looking to upgrade to around a 30k excavator sometime soonish. Right now im in parma doing dirt work on a 50x60 shop on a hillside moving lots of dirt.

New to Auto Transmissions
Ill jump in here after just recently buying a nv4500 truck but after putting almost 300k on my 02 with 47re ive had for 20 years My 47re was refreshed ounce by a mechanic. That lasted till the cheap tourqe convertor they used failed. At this point i decided to try my hand at a build myself. Orderd all seals bushings gpz fibers set kole steels cant remember evering. I spent about 2200 in parts. Threw virtually all the upgraded internals a good convertor this time. Long story short. My new to me nv4500 truck is like driving a old farm tractor in rush hour traffic. Everyone honking get out of the way. My 47 is quick tuff and reliable fun to drive ,i will not ever do manual swap on 2nd gen that has a 47 trans. In my opion they are much more fun hold more power more convient and comfortable. Offcourse with the right stuff in them. Then the nv4500 5th gear nut comes off. I think mikes has come of 5 or 8 times. Kidding. It was only 3 times Thats my take. Im reading your stuff. I played with the convertor lock up switches for a few years cause all the cool guys had switches i now find them completly unnessary A full manual valve body would be cool for dedicated off road rig or maybe pull truck or something. I do recomend buying a valve body set up to your needs. This will be night and day from stock just that alo will make your truck feel like it has more power build more boost and get better mpg paired with good clut hes and internals you will not be dissapointed. However you could run into issues with shop or your self being able install and set up transmission correctly. Its not rocket science but does take some know how and time yo get it right You will love a tight crisp driving 47re youve made a good choice.

Sudden loss of lockup
Transmission will produce the least amount of heat with the convertor locked and functioning correctly is i think what he was trying to say. Even working correctly in 1 2 3 tourge converter unlocked driving on fluid coupling the transmission will produce more heaat. But healthy shoukd have no issues staying under 165ish Pulling hard in 2nd id let it hit 180 collant temp if it sustains there id keep trucking. If it walks passed id shut her down. The heat exchanger should sustain it dumping transmission heat. If it cant dont keep driving. Trans temp might be more important than fuel or exhaust temp 3rd locked is the best place to be towing will produce the least heat. suspensionsn is tourqe convertor is actually locked when trucks in 4th. Was this issue ever figured out?

Trans problems
Your oil is brown youve neglected your transmission. Theres nothing wrong with 305 tires Service the tranny to include band adjustment. Probly should put a new tc solenoid and tranducer in it while your in there. The auto transmission seems to be the most neglected machine in the world dont be like that lol. Id cry if my red transmission fluid was brown heck im about to cry because yours is
