Cummins Grade!
Finally got one it's a two wheel drive 1996 5.9L. I wanted something that could come close to the Durability and longevity of a Busse CG

Nice truck!

I had a 97 with a 5.2 liter. Thing was loads of fun, but it was anything but reliable... transmission died in a few years, among other electrical issues.

My buddy just got rid of his 30 year old land cruiser, wish I bought it.

Anyways, plan to do anything to it?
 
Congrats brother --- hope you're not to gentle with it. Ride it hard and remember --- it's not about the miles per gallon -- it's all about the smiles per gallon!

Very true! I'm getting the intake and cold air box asap
 
Agreed, in your body style they are quite unique. That Cummins will carry you and whatever else to hell and back if need be. Ram tough brother
 
I actually had to look at my reference photograph quite often... I got my facial features pretty well locked down for this piece.

I had the same truck. Finally got rid of her after 11 years and 248,000 miles. She still ran great. Only issues I had were the water pump and the radiator. Replaced both three times. Wish I still had it.
