Obviously the front is

J/K
That rig kicks major ass! But more importantly, what are in the diffs, what gears? I'd like to see a shot of the steering linkage in the engine bay. I bet it was tight! How close is the oilpan to the front diff? More pics please........

dieselcruiserhead · 12-18-2002, 02:51 PM

I'll shoot him an email to get us some details...
Fresh out of picts on my end...

road1will · 12-18-2002, 03:22 PM

that is the ultimate of cool. the only thing i have concern over is the weight and vibration of the motor. for a TRAIL ONLY rig, i would rather have an 8cyl diesel for the smoothness. but in an expedition/daily driver/tow rig like what i plan to build in the far off future based off one of these-

i would rather have the 6cyl, and i will, with a TF727 and rover LT230 transfer case.

kwrangln · 12-18-2002, 03:27 PM

HARK! What is that strange sound I hear off in the distance?

Oh, its his front springs screaming for mercy

That is way cool, I love those motors.

Definatly need more specs and pics.

gunracer1 · 12-18-2002, 04:48 PM

thats a 89 to 91 non intercooled moter from a dodge. i have thought real serious about doing this and i have a 5.9 cummins at my disposal. but the noise turned me off for a trail rig. hell i have to shut my truck down to talk to anybody in a parking lot. the torque would be awsome, the fuel miliage would be great. but trying to listen to your spotter or talking to some one on the trail would suck. i bet with the pump bumped up that cruiser will haul ass. looks good, hell i would love to have it for a daily driver/ light trail rig. it would be a blast. mike

it'll be a shame to see so much work get wasted running places like elbe

gunracer1 · 12-19-2002, 06:35 AM

have you changed your fuel pin location to get max fueling and played with your smoke screw? and bump the timing up about 3/32 above the factory line. and get a 16cm. housing on it and it will get a boost a bit quicker. and i dont think egt's will be a problem with the weight you will be running. mike

5.9ctd_fj40 · 12-19-2002, 07:04 AM

yes i have turned in the fuel screw and adjusted the smoke screw. exhaust housing is 18 cm and i havent messed with timing yet when the pump was stock this thing moved like a lightning bolt on 42's with 4.56 gears and the trans in 3rd!!!!! torque has to be upwards of 650 lbs now!!

LC Hamma · 12-19-2002, 07:13 AM

Just looking at the drivetrain, did you scavenge it from a W350?
You know you're gonna start another trend here

What's your wheelbase? How bout some more engine bay shots?

5.9ctd_fj40 · 12-19-2002, 12:47 PM

no i didnt use the dodge gear the rear end is a dana 70 hd out of a ford dump truck i put 1 ton front 60 rotors on it. detroit locker front is military dana 60 4.56 and arb 35 spline all the way out

nvrenuf · 12-19-2002, 01:40 PM

Did you use front 60 calipers and brackets on the D70HD also?

Pics?!

No, there is NOTHING new about putting a Cumm-apart in a 4X4.
There are several of them running around Sacramento, and one of the buggy manufacturers offered a 4BT as an option.
I am just curious about front axle/driveshaft clearence.
Both of the rigs I have seen in town here had issues due to the large oil pan and the top to bottom dimensions of the block.

I woould not worry too much about innercoolers, aftercoolers, CACs, pyrometers, blah, blah, blah......
This engine will never create full power in a light weight rig.
If it ever does, watch your frame twist into a pretzel.
A lot of early Cummins Dodges came back to the dealership with a front tire in the air because the frame was so heavily twisted.

Ten_Bucks · 12-19-2002, 02:19 PM

That rig is very cool!!

nilla · 12-19-2002, 02:35 PM

heres mine w/ a nissan turbo diesel (sd33t)

and the jeep

sarge · 12-19-2002, 02:50 PM

road1will · 12-19-2002, 02:50 PM

how do you like the nissan diesel? they are cheap and i am assuming would work well in a light rig like mine.

nilla · 12-19-2002, 03:20 PM

it does fine, i have no complaints.
i took off the air cleaner and put an k&N filter in
place of it. that helped out alot with the response
and i can hear the turbo alot better now.....sounds sweet!!
this spring i'm going to put 3" exhaust on it and see if that
will help it out anymore.

Adam, cheap???

Oh, wait, you drive a Rover

5-6 grand for a new one, 3-4 to totally rebuild if you have a core.

the SD33T stock, is about 100 hp. Inadiquate for a 5000 lbs Scout. How light is your rig?

Anyone interested in SD33/T hopups visit here:

Yeah, its a Scout site, so what. They've got the market cornered on Nissan hop-up parts.

road1will · 12-19-2002, 06:00 PM

i have seen used motors sell for as little as $500 in running condition, im not too worried about price in that regard.

i would want to tweak it up to about 150hp, my truck is at about 100 right now and its too slow.

my rover is about 3300lbs.
