New Products: The Parts Rack—All the Parts You Need

Dodge NV4500 Bellhousings

It’s common to find that the stock bellhousing on 1994-03 Dodge/Ram diesel trucks can be cracked. Just finding your engine and transmission package for your swap was time consuming, and you still may not have all the parts required. Worse, NOS (new old stock) units are hard to find now that they factory has discontinued them.

The solution for your Cummins swap is one of Advance Adapters reproductions of this now discontinued bellhousing. Perfect for doing an engine conversion, converting a Gen II truck to a manual, or just replacing a broken factory bell in your existing truck. Two part numbers are available, and one is a complete kit, including pivot ball, release arm and retaining clip. Also available is as a blank casting only.

Diesel Torque for TJ Jeeps

The Coty Built TDI conversion package is a fantastic option to replace your TJ Jeep’s tired engine.  Maintaining your familiar Jeep engine accessories and drivetrain components, the Coty Built Truss Member straddles the engine bay to position a VW 1.9L turbo diesel engine in the perfect spot. A new, included transmission adapter unites the 4-cyl diesel to a Jeep AX5 or AX15/NV3550 gearbox. The CAN interface retains OEM instrument cluster function in your TJ. With an Air-to-Water Intercooler and other optional performance upgrades, this conversion makes your Jeep capable of tackling even the most extreme environments. (Note: the engine truss is shared with the Jeep YJ kit, but most other kit parts are vehicle specific for the TJ, YJ and XJ/MJ kits for 1.9L TID conversions are available too.)

Diesel Harness Wiring Services

Late model Ford Cummins conversions require a lot of time spent with wire cutters and a great deal of confidence interpreting a wiring schematic. If dealing with a snarl of wires is the only thing holding you back from a conversion, ship your wiring harness to Diesel Conversion Specialist and have them modify it for you.

Ram EcoDiesel Leveling Kit

If you own a 20013-14 Dodge Ram 1500 4×4 and want to level the stance, MaxTrac has a solution. The new MaxTrac Suspension 4WD leveling kit features a 1″ coil spacer as well as a 1.5″ strut spacer. This design offers 2.5″ of lift overall.

The design allows correct A-Arm angle and does not over extend the throw of the ball joint, eliminating premature ball joint failure. Unlike some companies who use a 2.5″ coil spacer, MaxTrax splits the difference with the coil spacer and strut spacer to keep the strut from topping out. This improves the ride. Spacers are finished in a signature gray, high quality powder coat for durability and rust prevention.

MaxPro Reverse Brake Bleeder

Phoenix Systems offers the heavy duty MAXPRO – a reverse brake bleeding system that allows automotive service professionals and D.I.Y’ers to efficiently perform one-person brake bleeding service, even on ABS systems.

The MAXPRO is constructed from durable die-cast steel and aluminum, and the brake bleeder is designed to withstand the rigors of professional use.

Rather than pushing air and fluid down through the system, as in the standard convention, the MAXPRO reverses this process. The trapped air in a brake system, which naturally wants to rise, is pushed up to the master cylinder with a MAXPRO. Properly bleeding your brakes will create a firmer pedal, increased braking power, responsiveness, and reduced vehicle stopping time.

LLY Duramax 3″ High Flow Intake Y-Bridge

Replace your factory restriction intake manifold pieces with a Dirty Hooker Diesel

(DHD) LLY High Flow Intake Kit. This kit is a complete one-piece intake manifold upgrade.

The intake is assembled from mandrel bent aluminum tubing which allows for a massive increase in intake volume. When compared to the factory intake plumbing, the DHD high flow intake bridge flows an impressive 152% more volume. This intake will not only increase horsepower, torque and airflow throughout the engine, but it will also reduce EGTs and drive pressure. The reduction in EGT and drive pressure will help yield a longer running, healthier engine.

This kit includes the main intake assembly and all necessary hardware for installation. We recommend our DHD 700-125 or 700-155 Fuel Block Upgrade kit when installing a DHD, LLY High Flow Intake.
