Just have a question to pose to the group.

I was involved in an accident with my 95 Dodge 2500 Cummins, and my insurance company wants to write off my truck. The other party was at fault.

My insurance company is only offering $4000 as truck's value, based on the body being dinged up and having 525,000 km. The damage is the left corner of the bumper, grill cracked and headlight/signal light on that side.

The truck had been performance tuned by Andy at Unlimited Performance, bought the truck from him when it had 407, 000 kms on it. The engine is presently pushing about 350 to 400 hp, and approximately 700 ft lbs of torque, with the transmission beefed up to handle the torque. I had to replace the Dana 70 rear end when a bearing gave out, so it now has a Dana 80 in it.

I would like to keep the truck, however, the only option, my insurance company is offering is to the pay out. They have deemed the truck a total loss, even tho I know that I can get another 300K out of the drive train, with normal maintenance.

Has anyone else been through the process or know anyone that help clarify the process, since I'm not getting any information from my insurance company. Not that I'm surprised on that point.

Thanks,

Alvin ]]> ABDTR #5 AlvinH http://www.dieseltruckresource.com/dev/showthread.php?t=303347 http://www.dieseltruckresource.com/dev/showthread.php?t=303346&goto=newpost Sat, 19 May 2012 14:51:22 GMT Neat little clip of James Dean and Ronald Regan in the General Electric theater. sometime around 1954 http://bcove.me/mha8ayg4 Neat little clip of James Dean and Ronald Regan in the General Electric theater. sometime around 1954

I'm currently getting no signal for the Left trailer light and noticed last night when troubleshooting it I could hear the relay clicking under the hood for the right side but not for the left side. I also have no constant 12V on the trailer plug checked the fuse, seemed OK but replaced it anyhows. Also having an issue with the brake controller, not seeming to get signal for that and the brake controller seems to be functioning OK. I have a second brake controller, thought about swapping it out but thought this might just all be related. Did a TON of reading online and I think this all points to the IPM. If thats the case, I might just go and install a POWER MODULE like a lot of other guys did and run my 12V direct from the battery and run another wire from the brake controller.
