  1. LMC truck has them also. Here ya go. Lmc truck washer res link
  2. I might try and sell my whole NV5600 manual setup. That would prolly get most of the money for a built trans. Anyone need a full NV5600, 6spd 4x4 swap??? With t-case? Prolly sell axles/rolling frame too, D70 and D80, both disc brakes, 4.10's with detroit truetrak differential, mag hytec cover Suspension?
  3. I wouldn't even bother with trying to fix it. A new one is only like $30 or you could find a used one on FB market place for $5-$10... Save yourself the headache.
  4. I would pull the water pump and inspect it and the rubber seal since it there no coolant in it. The gasket is like $3, new pump $60 (orielly's) if there is any inclination that the bearing has play or is starting to seize. You can have you alternator checked as well while your in there with the belt off, that would eliminate a charging issue, and its free. I agree with @Tractorman a coolant pressure test is definitely needed, check your engine oil and level just in case you blew a head gasket. After that its on to wiring, fuses, etc. Your app is showing no codes and the key on/off is showing the 4 codes? I, or as anyone else would say, do not trust the factory pump and don't chance it. Get a Fass system as soon as you can. At a minimum, since you just got it, change the fuel filter(s). Rule of thumb for me on any used vehicle is all the oils changed, and ALL new filters. My 🪙🪙
  5. Even just for a fun play truck, grocery getter, type deal? Im no stranger to rowing gears, small and big trucks. I have never driven a go-fast play truck with an auto though. The auto calls for me lol but the headache, price, and complexity keep leading me back to manual... Im just trying to justify which one, and its a booger.
  6. Yes indeed, carpet is on the "to get list" The list of stuff to do and get is quite long but the plan is coming together nicely!
  7. Ive heard the nv4500 are alot simpler/easier than the nv5600. The 56 the case has to be dropped onto the whole stack of everything and its a pain the line up! Im mainly asking those questions in the sense I am going only going auto, aside from the first one which was should I stick to my guns and go auto or go the simple route of the 5spd. Lol
  8. I have always had a manual on all of my 2nd gen cummins trucks, mainly due to the obvious reason's we all know with dodge transmissions, to include failure, reliability, strength, and PRICE (auto), especially when you add any power to it. So now I am trying to do a crash course on auto transmission in 2nd gens cause I am clueless on everything/anything with them. Man this is making me feel so dumb... Gonna be trying to learn about lockup, torque converter stall, billet this and billet that, what auto parts, auto computers or tuners?, etc... I am so so so tempted to put a nv4500 in this build, just for the availability and strength! Please reference 24v 1500 Cummins Thread check it out in the cummins swap section) 1999 Ram 1500 Shortbed 2wd Cummins Inspiration Video of what I'm going for But I think Ill regret it in the end since this will be a play truck obviously. (Keep in mind I plan to try and keep power around or below 600hp) Ill just be spinning the tires irregardless in this light truck... NO - I have rebuilt my NV5600 before (for my truck in sig) but I think rebuilding an auto would be way out of my league even with my extensive mechanic background with JD. So Ill list just a few questions/thoughts to start with for the well versed auto guys. 1- Should I still go for an auto over a simple nv4500? 2- Could I rebuild an auto? (this could expand into another big discussion via what parts/brand etc.) 3- Who/where would you choose to send a core to and have them rebuild it for you? $$Suncoast - ATS$ Transmission - ETC
  9. Ill just have those "2500" lowering springs up front. I guess I forgot to put the link in for the build Im following. Check it out, pretty sweet rig! 1500 Cummins YT video
  10. Thank you! Ill prolly dive into this with my new build. 24v Ram 1500 Cummins 😉
  11. Picked up my next project!!! Mint condition inside and out 1999 Ram 1500 single cab shortbed with a v6. Going to be putting a 24v Cummins in it. I think Ill be going with an auto for this one, I have tons of NV5600 and NV4500 available around me but for ease of drivability and fun, me thinks auto... I should be getting my donor truck this coming weekend. 2001 Cummins 2500 single cab 4x4, Ill have the disc brake axles for sale soon if anyone is interested in the area? I dont know if ill keep all the questions in this section, I might post in the 24v section for some questions if/ when I need too. Going to be doing lots to this little guy! Here is a link to what my inspiration is coming from and pretty much what its gonna be/ look like. Minus the color, going metallic white with some bronze wheels most likely. Looking for sponsors....... 😉Fass Fuel, Quadzillla, DAP injectors and turbo(s), loads of LMC and more! 😉 More to come!!!

    @Mopar1973Man how do you like your wolfbox? I been seriously thinking about getting one for my 19' Ram and prolly my 2nd gens too... I know there's a couple of different models, what do you have? I want one that is on a loop. Idk how big that loop is, guess that depends on your SD card size. It seems to fit the bill, dash cam plus rear view camera, there ads are all over my fb lol....
  13. Im gonna need to do some more digging on this apps "delete" and this conversion. Very interested, possibly needs to be a article 😉
  14. I dont believe the grid heaters cycle after the truck is running. Did you do the wiggle test along the entire harness checking for shorts and voltage?
  15. Just doesn't make sense having additional blends of the already "winter blend" 🤣
