my cummins build
 

im going to be starting a cummins swap in the near future. the truck i am converting is a 2000 dodge 4x4 1/2 ton. i have a 1994 4x4 c&c truck that is next to junk besides the running gear. i am taking any advice or pointers i can take along the way. im sure i will run into issues along the swap...... so far my mods are 4k gov springs and 60#valve springs. my starting question is the wireing will all the under hood wireing from the 94 plug place to the 2000 under hood wireing or whats the ideas there thanks guys

Heres the project (if you need any parts for a 1/2 ton hit me up all the running gear is coming out of this truck)

Its a pretty straight forward swap, lots of pics along the way please

i plan on posting the complete build here. im remodeling my house right now so toys are on hold for a bit but it will be done in the new future.:c:

hey guys another question. will the flywheel from the 6.7 cummins fit the 12v? im planning on putting my g56 behind my 12v. what my plan is to put the complete clutch setup for the g56 behing the 12v. what you guys think?

Like as in the stock g56 clutch?

i will be running a sb dual disk from an 08 cummins with the g56.

this sounds cool, im buying 3 cummins soon and gonna stuff one of them into a durango for my baby girl, i got 4 more years till she drives so better get started soon
I may just have to start a thread on this build also
first i gotta find a worthy 98-01 durango, i have a buddy at grange who can hook me up with a salvage

Ya forsure post your build and lots of pics along the way

Anyone know??

is the frame in a 1/2 ton the same as a 3/4 or 1 ton truck?

as far as a g56 and flywheel fitting up to a 5.9..... in essence a 6.7 is a 5.9 just bumped up in displacement to make up for the crap the Govt made the big 3 stuff on their oil burners to make them more eco friendly, im almost 100% sure a g56 will fit up just fine although most of the memories I have of a g56 are painful.. shes a big pig and a pain to rebuild mostly because shes a pig
I found a hood fire salvage 07 ram the other day I almost purchased for 1200 , had a 6.7 burned up in it but I bet the block was ok and I have a good pcm and harness on my bench... but ide rather have a 12v p pumped tbh
