Hi all
I finally got a Cummins
02 3500 swb club cab
Its bone stock other than some short *** 4" straight pipe and an intake.
I got some cash saved up what should I do first?
And yes im aware that im probably going to launch the hd241 and the 47re out of the truck...... Ehh I could be doing worse ****.
P.S. I HATE IMPORTS!!!!!

Upgraded lift pump. upgraded trans, and a tuner. You should be good to go for a little while.

Torque converter, valve body, at a minimum. I personally am thinking about going with the M3GA tranmission in a box, with either a revmax 3.5/4 or suncoast TC. But this will happen when my current trans says it is tired of playing.
