1991 dodge 250 4X4
I have a 1991 dodge 250, cummins turbo diesel, auto trans. Came factory with P235-16 tires and am now running P265-16 tires. It has 354 factory gears under it. Truck is basically factory stock with no modifications. The problem is that I can't keep a transmission in it. The transmission has overdrive on it. The overdrive always goes first. It seems like the truck is always in a constant pull. Do I need to change he ring and pinions to gear the truck lower to make it easier on the trans? If so what gear ratio do I need to put under it? Any help would be appreciated.

Have you replaced torque converter with transmissions? Has non lockup converter but if internals are damaged, could be cause. Now there is a throttle position sensor on top of inj pump throttleshaft that is adjustable and is main cause of no OD. Have only been successful around 10% of time w/adjustments. Need scan tool for adjustment or replacement. Should be scanned anyways for other problems that might be contributing. TPS is cheapest thru Cummins, LMK if you need pt #. Tire size diff not that big of deal.

If it is your TPS there is a tps delete kit out there for 40 bucks that works great. From DNR Customs - Home
