I guess IH and Ford are done. I am very surpised Ford is building it's own Diesel. Their first? Boy, don'y you want to own the first one? At least GM went to Isuzu,a company that has built a few million diesels of all sizes. Even at that, it's taken a while to get a relaible motor. The emisions have added to the complexity and even Cummins has had issuse with the 6.7. I thank God I have a 5.9, ...

Seems like the bugs are coming out on these newer motors as the miles get up there...Curious to see if they make the 500K miles like some of the cummins motors..

4.56 Gears Behind a Cummins
Published (2009-12-09 19:15:00)
2100 is the rpm you want to be at for towing. If you go below that, you might have some issues with EGT's. I may put some 4:56's in my truck later on when all I'm doing is towing my fifth wheel. What I need is 4:30's. No one makes them. 4:10 only gets me 200 rpm above the 3:73's I currently have. Need to get the load off that 48RFE tranny to make it last. Less tranny temp, lower egts. Good luck with your project. Dave

There is still a lot to be said about leaf springs and solid axels.
