I would think ford Cummins would have just the bushings for repair they can't last forever. Might go to Napa and see if they got anything

 

I didnt think of that. Asking them for a price of replacements. Yeah they would have to be replaced at one point. And once we get a brand or part number then it should be easy to locate replacements through napa like you said


I just tried to call Ford cummins about those mounts and I keep getting a machine..Ill try later when I can get an actual person............

And they are up to $275..

 

let me know if you can get replacements and i will check with napa and see if they can get them too

Did you use the stock down pipe or did you have to fab one up

 

I made my pipe.. I work on heavy equipment now, and the machines I work on have the cummins in them,The 4 cylinders. Well Skytrak keeps having problems building down pipes and mufflers that wont stop breaking. So everytime I have to install an update exhaust. I keep the down pipes for my personal use. They have many different bends and I just cut them in certain places and clocked and welded them to make my exhaust. Also its 3 inch pipe.


Before I smoothed the welds

Test fitted

Primered. I painted it black high temp engine paint

 

So you had to go on the out side of the frame or is that the way that worked best for your truck

 

Thats what I did. The stock dodge has it coming straight down then under the floor and so on. I wanted to keep the exhaust up high and tucked at frame level,So when I go wheeling I dont hit.. If I had an exhaust bender then maybe I would have went with in the frame. That and If I had the money I would of just took it to a muffler shop to fabricate.

 

I know what you mean. And I tried to call ford Cummins no answer left a message don't look like they are gonna call back. I went to Napa found something that looked simalar from the pictures but they didn't have them in stock so might order one just to see

What did you do about the seal on the rear of the trans? its keeping my stupid shaft from sliding on all the way.

 

Dude... I didnt get an email that you asked me a question until today..The 20th.. Anyway the seal on the trans,,,Just remove it. And either silicone the trans to the adapter or get the gasket for it. The stub shaft doesnt fit in the seal and there is no replacement as far as I know. The T-case has a seal of its own,so you dont have to worry about tranny fluid going in,well unless the seal fails,then your T-case will overflow out of the breather. Also, Check how it all fits together first. As the instructions say,(assuming your using an advanced adapter kit) I had to cut off about a 1/4 inch off the trans output shaft. Otherwise the shaft is too long and wont let the whole thing bolt together,pushing the T-case away from the trans. I hope my reply wasnt too late.. I thought I would get a notification as soon as a reply would go on the thread..

 

Oh its fine I was just looking into that. And I got the advance adapter kit and I haven't test fitted yet but looks like I wont need to cut and from eyeballing it I read that some ppl do and some dont
