Sometime I find it is better to remove all the hacked up, mismatch wires and start fresh. Take a look at this article and see if it helps. https://mopar1973man.com/cummins/articles.html/24-valve-2nd-generation_50/51_engine/59_fuel/installing-protective-lift-pump-relay-r501/

Here is my truck @Mopar1973Man place getting a new right hub with about 120K on the clock.

It may be a wheel bearing going bad. Drive on a windy road 30-45MPH letting off the power and coasting into the corners. If there is a bearing starting to go bad you will hear a grinding noise when it gets "loaded" it the turns. So on a right turn the left bearing gets loaded and listen for the noise. As a left bearing get worse it will make noise on a straight drive but go away on a left turn when it is "unloaded". The opposite tests will hold true for the right side bearing.

I pulled the transmission in my yard by myself, I was 67 when I did it. It was then strapped to a pallet and picked up by the trucking compony Saia. A week later the transmission was dropped off at a friends shop, North County Smog & Repair, where he helped me install it.

I had @Dynamic build mine. I shipped it from San Diego county to his shop in Newman Lake, WA. Line pressure 100PSI in drive at idle and 170PSI wide open. Exhaust brake works great with it locked up even in 1st. Both @JAG1and @Mopar1973Manhave driven it and gave excellent reviews.

How long does a wrap last on the body?

@wil440 installed a vacuum control switch in his so he could use 4 LO with the front axle free.

Can you post some photos of this.

That sucks, so much labor and every time you take it off there is the chance of something else braking. You need to put a zipper on it for easier removal and installs.

The Edge Juice w/ Attitude CS2 Dodge/Ram 5.9L 2001-2002 – 31401 is CARB legal https://edgeproducts.com/50-state-legal-products/ If you're going to put an exhaust brake on check if it will bolt to the turbo and what is the size of the down pipe for it. My exhaust brake, Pacbrake, bolted right to the back of the HX35 turbo and came out at 4". You can also get it in a 3" down pipe version.

I'm from the school of "if it ain't brook don't fix it". I put those in at 97k miles and they made a big change in power for the best. The 50hp injectors are good low power increase too. The Edge tuner may not be able to control smoke with bigger injectors. Others would know more about that then me. I have an HX35 and max out at 30 psi. I can pull a 6% grade to 8K feet at 55 mph pulling a 9k lb trailer with a little power to spare. It's less than mine.

Still, if the tuner is attached to the vehicle and does not have a CARB E.O. number the vehicle will fail the CA SMOG test. I use to remove the EDGE EZ from my truck before a test Here is another article about the EPA and diesel tunes. https://www.motortrend.com/how-to/1903-is-diesel-tuning-dead/

I'm keeping mine; it does what I want which is pull the 5th wheel. Since October 2019 : Dynamic stage 2 trans, 4 new Michelins, paint and body work, new LMC dash, new speakers and amp, bed rail covers and tie downs, and a Pacbrake. I bought it used in 04 for $24k with just over 28K miles. It now has 123K.

Only four other people have driven my truck since I've owned it. A friend, so he could take his dad to the hospital when we were camping, @JAG1 , @Mopar1973Man, and my wife because she owns half of it. I've had a few others ask to "borrow it" and the answer is "go to U-Haul; they rent them".

He's right He still looks the same.

In put shaft or stator/pump?

How much money is the drug companies making from the government with complete immunity from liability on an unproven/general population tested product. A sweet deal.

I heard on the radio news tonight that 49% of the people in the hospital with Coronavirus had been immunized. You better keep wearing that face diaper.

postpone using heat-producing appliances like the oven, dishwasher, clothes washer, and dryer my mistake, it's 78° for the AC all so turn off all unnecessary lights, use fans for cooling, and unplug unused items.

I remember back in the late 70's there was a drought and there was water restrictions and there have been several droughts since then. The last major dam built in Cali was 1979. Do you think they stopped building homes, condos, or apartments...NO. They say "people need a place to live" I say fine let them live some where else. It's the same with electricity here; not enough power during high demand times so the state has a "Flex Alert" for people to conserve power by setting the AC to 80, turn off all non essential appliances, and (here is my favorite) don't charge your electric cars. In my county in the past few years the closed two oil fired power plants along with two nuclear power reactors and replaced them with a few wind turbines. This is the stuff 3ed world countries are made of. Well they got what they voted for.

Better stuff than you were in the 60's.

Call or visit your local salvage yards. They may have it. Parts from a Ram 1500 or 3500 will work. https://www.salvage-parts.com/junk-yards/vancouver-wa
