A 95 Dodge 2500 4x4, Has 5.9l 360. I Want To Put A Cummins In It, So How Difficult? What Kind Of Changes Do I Need To Take Into Consideration? Any Info Or Advice Would Be Greatly Appreciated

You would be money ahead to just sell your 95 gasser and buy a similar truck with the CTD.

If you have to ask.....sell your truck and buy a CTD.

But it is entirely doable search for superhawk2002 he did CTD swap over on Pavementsucks

I help a good freind of mine do it to an `84 crewcab. In that case it was worth it. Otherwise just to go from gas to diesel...it's easier to buy a CTD.

I did this swap to get a 1st gen style crew cab. Something that was never produced by Dodge. Since your talking 95, I would't waste my time with the swap, I'd just sell and buy the CTD.

Certainly doable -- but unless you find one hell of a deal on a donor CTD with lots of parts available, it will become more expensive than selling your current truck and finding a good CTD.

There are a few links over on Pavementsucks about the swap and the issues I ran into. Good luck.

If you have to ask.... X however many we are up to now.
Only way to make it somewhat worth it, would be a great deal on a wrecked truck and swap parts over, the best would be to drop your body on a rolled truck. Even in that case, you can find body parts cheap enough and just sell your truck.
