1996 Dodge Ram 3500! 5.9l 12 Valve Cummins! 5spd! Dually! Michelins! Rockstars! on 2040-cars

1996 Dodge Ram 3500

These trucks are getting harder and harder to find, especially with all the options this one has to offer. You are looking at a 1996 Dodge Ram 3500 with the legendary 12 valve 5.9L Cummins diesel motor. To back up the powerhouse, this truck has the highly sought after 5 speed manual transmission. It does not get any better than this. This truck is a long bed dually and it is a pulling machine. You will find these trucks everywhere that have been run the life out of, but not this one. This is basically a mechanically bone stock 12 valve. The only thing I have modified is the looks of the truck. I use the truck for hauling, and it does what I expect it to do and beyond. I wanted a great looking truck that I could get in and drive across country if needed, and this is the truck.

Below is a list of what makes this truck:

-         VIN: 1B7MC36C5TS586974

-         12 Valve 5.9L Cummins Diesel

-         New 5 speed manual transmission (less than 10,000 miles)

-         New Factory replacement clutch (less than 10,000 miles)

-         New brakes (rotors and pads)

-         New ball joints

-         New idler arm

-         New belt

-         New pitman arm

-         New steering stabilizer

-         New Valvoline synthetic fluids bumper to bumper

-         In-bed gooseneck ball hitch

-         Plastic bed liner

-         Cold AC

-         RECON LED Cab clearance lights

-         RECON LED Fender marker lights

-         RECON LED 3^rd brake light

-         Black housing LED trail lights

-         Black housing head lights (with bright blue bulbs)

-         New Michelin tires (less than 1,000 miles)

-         New Rockstar dually wheels (less than 1,000 miles)

-         Lowered 2” in the front and 6” in the rear (all leafs are still present)

-         New white paint job (grille and bumper painted to match)

-         5% tint with 35% on windshield

-         Straight piped exhaust with 4” MBRP tip

-         New In-Dash 7” flip-up TV/DVD/MPS/Ipod/Sirus

-         CLEAN AND CLEAR TITLE IN HAND

-         CARFAX INCLUDED

The BAD:

-         245,XXX miles.

-         Leaks oil (if a 12 valve does not leak oil, then the motor is dry)

-         Driver’s side window switches short every now and then. Windows roll up and down just fine.

-         Paint is not a $10,000 paint job. However, it does look good.

-         Interior does not look as good as the exterior.

-         Heater core is by-passed (probably a bad heater core).

-         Parking brake does not work.

-         Trailer wiring is not in place.

-         Dash is cracked and drivers seat is torn.

I’m sure I am forgetting a few things. As you can tell, I have invested thousands into this truck in order to make it the perfect road hauling machine. It looks slick as could be driving down the road with or without a trailer, and that is exactly what I wanted. This truck does have 245,XXX miles and yes, it does leak oil; it is a 12 valve Cummins. It does not pour oil but it certainly marks its spot when you let it sit overnight. I would not be afraid to jump in this truck today and drive it across the country.

This is NOT a show truck. It is a truck that is made to work but still look good while doing so. This is my 5^th Cummins, and every one I have owned has had over 300,000 miles. How long these motors last depends on how well they are maintained. This one will last 500,000 miles without a doubt.
