those transmissions have a 60,000 mile service maintenance requirement of adjusting the bands. its in the service manual. most people don't do that and think their tranny is going when it slips. it needs adjustment.. lol
53 blocks also effect some 12 valves. KDP on both 5.9's and even the 4BT is also something to worry about. I daily a 53 block 24v with a 47re and I've had no problems. I've also only got 176K on the truck but so far absolutely no issues.
I've got a 99 Cummins 53 block 243000 miles. No crack yet. It's my understanding not all 99 Cummins 53 blocks were bad. In fact there's a ton of people who claim they have a 53 block and soup it to high hell and no issues.
I had Randy Johnson work on my 12 valve 2nd gen truck for a tappet cover repair and he told me about the dail pin he said he fixed it forever so let’s hope I should check it to make sure but I’ve heard Randy Johnson in the man on Cummins and 12 valves
I got lucky with the KDP on my truck. When it happened it just ejected itself out of the cover into my crank postion sensor. Some JB welf fixed that hole and she runs smooth to this day.
Okay I live in the rust belt (upper Illinois) and ive owned two 2nd gens. The first was a 1995 with the 5.9 magnum, and the other is a 2001 with the 24v. ON NIETHER OF MY TRUCKS NOR ANY OTHER 2nd Gen ive seen up here, has EVER has a bad frame. Sure, theres some rusty ass ones. But never close to "falling apart" I have NO idea where your getting that from. "theyre just KNOWN for falling apart" buddy, where?
I would replace the rusting frame issue (common to any vehicle in the rust belt) with the stock, Gen 2 steering issues, but everything else is spot on. We have a ‘94 Auto and an ‘01 6-speed, quad cab in the family. Both long beds and 4x4. 172K and 411K miles, respectively. Love them both, but would really like a P-pump on the ‘01. Finally, eliminated oil leaks on the ‘01 with a speedy sleeve and seal on the crank nose, a Keating machine tappet cover, a Cummins vacuum pump reseal kit and a Red Head steering box. Good bye automatic rust proofing and kitty litter on the shop floor. The ‘01 also has Gen 3, 14” brakes (17” wheels), Gen 4, T-style tie rod, adjustable track bar, Borgesen high volume power steering pump, Thuren front springs and EMF ball joints. It stops, steers and tracks like a new truck. The ‘94 (bought new) has a built 47RH, the KDP fix, fuel plate, slightly bigger injectors and one ton rear wheel cylinders. Almost stock, but good light duty, daily driver, with better brakes and “gitty up” better than stock. Many more fixes and improvements on both. Great trucks, both clean and easy to maintain compared to PS or DM powered trucks.
I'm looking at a 2000 ram 3500. Needs a new injection pump and a new lift pump. As for the interior, I plan on changing it out anyway for a laramie longhorn interior as much as I can. It's a 6 speed so it's a great truck, only 290k miles too. I plan to eventually get a laramie longhorn ram 2500 4 door because eventually kids happen, but I ain't ever getting rid of my 2000.
Don't get me wrong I'm a fan of Dodge as much as I am Ford and Chevy but from my experiences it seems that to an extent, the outsourced drivetrain is the only good part of the truck. not hating on Dodge, I've got a lot I can complain about from all three brands lol
I used to think all the dodge was, was a shipping crate for the cummins and would yank them out first chance I got. Now with emissions they way they are in some states I am getting to learn how to do some restoration work cause that may be my only option later down the road. IT SUCKS!! the for bodies are so much better.
They switched to the "semi" body style in 94' and became one of the most highest grossing production trucks of all time. It was the look. The "Twister" truck. Dodge with those smooth rounded lines has always made the best looking truck. Numerous truck of the year awards. I think it was more looks than anything.
tbh ive been a chevy guy all my life. Never was interested in fords except for the 7.3 powerstroke but i know they are good just like any brand. Worked on plenty of chevys, just recently got an 03 dodge ram 2500 cummins and ive got to say nothing about it is cheap compared to any of the chevy's i had. if anything the chevys felt cheaper. Front ends i guess do wear out but my truck has 330,000kms and the previous owner didnt do any front end work for 80,000kms and i doubt it had any recently when he got it. I replaced some u joints and balljoints in the front end because they were in dire need but i know my chevys well and they are no saint when it comes to falling apart around the engine lol. Chevys need balljoints, wheel bearings, steering boxes and tie rods all the time as well. everything drivetrain related aside from the engine is original on my truck, transfer case, diffs and even the transmission so im told. knock on wood
Yeah the frames don’t fall apart it’s age and location in Texas they almost all have the paint still on the at least 35-70% paint coverage just depending if the owner let the truck set with mud on it or not
I had a 1997 1500 (so before the '98 refresh) and I can 100% confirm, the dashboard was TERRIBLE. One day the radio just fell out. The cupholder also came out eventually, there was just nothing left after a time.
all these 2nd gens are 20 plus years old. unless you have a super deep wallet you're not going to be able to afford one that doesn't need fixing, unless you get an extremely good deal/find. these trucks are timeless in my opinion love um or hate them they are sweet trucks. my advice if you desire one of these trucks especially a 24 valve you are going to have to spend a few dollars fixing the weak points but honestly after tackling a few issues you will have a great running truck take care of it they will last for hundreds of thousands of miles! my 24 valve has 300k miles completely stock besides a dual disk clutch, fass lift pump and a couple new components zero blow by, no leaks. just stay away from the 53 blocks especially if you are planning adding more powa.
Unfortunately, 90% of the issues you addressed are problems all the way up to the 4th gens.. posssibly even the 5th gens but it’s not a common issue yet! My 3rd gen dash is fucked, has a built tranny after learning the hard way acouple times, front end doesn’t have a Chrysler part in the front end, frame has been fully redone etc
Just placed another order in the store!! Me and my boy are excited for the contest! He’s a diesel fanatic!! He showed me your channel and said we have to Win Nasty Red! Lol looking forward to new content.. God Bless
I don’t know about all that I’ve had 4 of them and only had trouble with 1 dash I have an 02 4x4 with the Cummins and everything is original no ratels no rust holes or any other problems and yes the dash is original and not one crack the truck has 289,000 miles guess I’m just lucky love my truck and will drive it until it falls apart or I do
I have a furniture business and have owned probably 20 Dodge ram Cummins. The 12 valve Cummins are indestructible. No computer controlled this, no electronic that, just basic, easy to work on, and u get a 5 speed and you can depend on them day in and day out, never a problem. 17 mpg with a 25000 pound trailer. Had a Ford 7.3 and was dependable but got 5 mpg. When u drive them all day every day that mpg gets expensive fast. The 94-97 12 valve 5 speed is the best all around truck ever made, period
I own a second gen and daily a first gen I love my first gen my second generation is awesome too but I like the quality of t he first gen more overall better then driving a Ford or a Chevy cuz then I’d be waiting for the shop to fix it Nothing like the reliability of the Cummins 12 valve is my favorite
Idk why I’ve been lucky with my VP-44 & factory lift pump, but I give all the credit to using nothing but Chevron #2 diesel (not the biodiesel crap) and I’ve always added Lucas Fuel Treatment mixed With Marvel Mystery Oil religiously with every fuel up. 🤞🏽🙏🏽
Might be worth getting a fuel pressure gauge to monitor the stock pump. My understanding they don't just go out they get weak over time and starve the vp44 without the driver even knowing because there's no symptoms. When I first got my truck it had a stock Carter lift pump on the engine pushing 12 PSI. I replaced it with ddrp not fass, Lil pump I found on eBay. How to rewire the connection polarity but it works just like a fass play pushing 20 psi. Only cost me $100 on eBay.

Thats a good deal, i got my 2000 2500 for 15k, these trucks are worth the money, although maybe talk him down a bit if it has any major rust or broken shit like leaks and whatnot. These trucks have historically appreciated in value too. If you keep it in good shape, even just stock, it should be worth more in a couple of years, unlike most vehicles.
@TaxationIsTheft439 yea that might differ because of your area tbh, im in socal california so everything is pricey, i know thats what they go for around here, probably more available around you. Just keep up the research. Good luck
The thing about dodges is they’re very bi polar about their quality. The 1st gen trucks are very well built. Second gen’s are crap. 3rd gens are decent. Their stuff is good and bad they’re kind of all over the place

Great info and excellent video. However, those rims and skinny tires have ruined that truck man. Nothing about that looks rugged or manly! You have created a pavement pounder that's all show and no coal! Those wheels look awful! My gosh quit trying to make every truck a Baja truck from Commie-Fornia son! If you want to upgrade the rims convert that to a 10 lug and put some 22" Alcos on there with 35's! Do this after lifting it 6"! Here ended the lesson! Blow coal!
You fail to realize how much better the second generation frame design is compared to the other 90s trucks, which every other company used a weak c channel frame. starting in 94 dodge designed the new frame that is fully boxed to the rear of the cab. the second gen ram shut on ford and gm in every way in the 90s. Shitty dash, ok get a lmc truck dash and forget about it. but i want you to compare the other two competitors frames and get back at me.
@@JCSDieselPerformance yeah I have. They hold up a million times fucking better. They can’t make crew cabs outta them and you never see 2nd gen rollbacks or ambulances or anything, again I wonder why? Oh yeah because their frames were weak as shit

You have created a pavement pounder that's all show and no coal! Those wheels look awful! My gosh quit trying to make every truck a Baja truck from Commie-Fornia son! If you want to upgrade the rims convert that to a 10 lug and put some 22" Alcos on there with 35's! Do this after lifting it 6"! Here ended the lesson! Blow coal!
You fail to realize how much better the second generation frame design is compared to the other 90s trucks, which every other company used a weak c channel frame. starting in 94 dodge designed the new frame that is fully boxed to the rear of the cab. the second gen ram shut on ford and gm in every way in the 90s. Shitty dash, ok get a lmc truck dash and forget about it. but i want you to compare the other two competitors frames and get back at me.
😂 there’s a reason they couldn’t make crew cab trucks bud
Have you even compared ford and gm frames of the 90s to a second gen? You'll be surprised
@@JCSDieselPerformance yeah I have. They hold up a million times fucking better. They can’t make crew cabs outta them and you never see 2nd gen rollbacks or ambulances or anything, again I wonder why? Oh yeah because their frames were weak as shit
Find yourself a v10
You need to get smaller wheels and bigger tires for your trucks. These big wheels and small tire walls look garbage
You must be new to the Channel lol…
@@LOUDNPROUD I've been here for a while. I mean, I'm not a huge fan of Nasty Reds wheel/tire setup either. I think lost is side wall is a lot better than rubber band tires
@@nathan1sixteen Do you have been around a while that you know that we have done lots of wheel and tire set ups that are less rim and more tire
But it’s been a while since we did a wide set up. We have to do styles for more than just one type of person.🤷🏼♂️
@@LOUDNPROUD oh, I know. I was specifically talking about these 2 trucks.
I mean, I remember when you got your first (?) OBS Ford, and it had REALLY Big wheel and SUPER thin tires, and you swapped them out for a more reasonable set
Stop hanging the goofy rims outside the wheel well !! It's the worst thing ever - like running low profies on a 4x4 w/ no sidewall !?!? What is that !?!? Ridiculous !! Yes, i'm judging you -
hey man i love the trucks and im fourteen and right when i turn 18 12 valve 5.9 on a 4 inch lift kit on 22/14 youve inspired me so much love the vid ,jason btw thanks for the follow back on tiktok
