Building My Dream 2nd Gen Cummins Part 1

This truck was stock the last time you saw it, but I’ve been chipping away at some improvements so build my dream truck! This 58k mile 1999 Ram 2500 Cummins is looking a whole lot better with some fresh Thuren suspension, Walker Evans wheels and 35” Nitto Ridge Grappler tires. This is just the beginning though!

I've got a 2nd gen manual I was about to put up for sale. Then you started this series and made me rethink that plan.

You literally need more subs. Your videos are so crisp and informational. You and Chris fix are my favorite YouTube channels.

Being a Canadian it's always refreshing seeing how clean your rigs are!

I just picked up a 2001 5.9 just like your truck only with a 6 speed manual 137, 000 miles. Right out of a time capsule, it is clean. Can't be happier. Thanks for sharing.

Literally a perfect second gen in my opinion those walker Evans look so good on it! 🔥

I finally found a great Gen 2! I love it!

I just got my 2021 TDR calendar, I see your 1st gen dually pictured for April, that’s awesome

I also have a 2001 diesel. Mine also is automatic, two wheel drive, long bed. Just turned 52, 000. Like new. Love it. Just doing maintenance, keeping it original.

Love this. I'm trying to get a 24v Gen 2 myself soon, this just gives me more inspiration!

[kconutkmando]

Really love the look of your 2nd gen. Your videos are great even for us V10 guys! Planning out some engine and trans maintenance for now, but hope to get my 96 about the same stance as your Cummins. Keep up the vids!

Nice touch on the upgrades while maintaining the true 2nd Gen character of the truck!

Sweeet! Dodge has definitely changed the game many times over. Original 4x4 truck 1946. The truck that needs no road. Power Wagon. Dodge trucks of all shapes and sizes served our great nation in combat. Chrysler was the sole source of Tansfer cases and standard transmissions for all full size american trucks. New process gear. Making Chevy and Ford 4 wheel drive over a decade later late 50's. First turbo diesel, fully boxed frame, Exhaust brake, Extra cab and crew cab etc... I finally own my dream truck 2015 AEV Prospector power wagon i bought brand new after owning my 2003 Hemi 1500 4x4 for 12 years and 112, 000 trouble free miles. Sold it to my best friend who still drives it today. Mid 70's Dodge Big Horn Semi's are awesome trucks as well.

I cant believe how CLEAN it is...its so nice to see these ol' girls still in Original shape and not butchered for Truck Pulls or some HS Kid getting ahold of it and squatting it, destroying the wiring harness or doing some shade tree performance crap to them...keep it classy. Beautiful rig. Wish mine was that beautiful...

You need more subs you’re videos are so high quality and you have the sickest and cleanest trucks.

[noahfoufoulas]

Love your videos! This really makes me want to dive head first into my 12 valve and fix the body and do all the suspension upgrades!

[dominickroman]

I’m not even a minute in and I can’t wait to follow this. I’m wanting to build up a 2nd gen in about a year or two, god willing

I've been looking
Into buying a 2nd Gen, definitely getting one now
