Welcome to DTR.
You have a Cummins D 150??
Door emblems?? The 1st gens have the emblems on the fenders from the factory.
Cummins trucks only came in 250 and 350 trucks from the factory.
I have lots of 1st gen truck emblems, but would want to know what emblem you need.

Thanks for welcoming! I have an '86 D150 with a '90 Cummins in it. The emblem I need is simple "RAM (Cummins Turbo Diesel)" I attached the photo, if you have that one, I would really appreciate it!!

I have a set of those from a '90 Cummins 2wd truck in the shop.

Do you need just one, or the pair?
Do you need the leaping Ram 250 emblem as well?

Awesome! I would need the pair, I already have the leaping Ram from my Ramcharger Parts car! Any tricks in removing, reapplying said emblems (and trim) would be much appreciated as well! Thanks again!

Depending on how nice the fender is...I often have a rusty fender and the emblem is actually what is valuable the fender is rust and patch panels. In that case I use a cheap long flexible kitchen knife to cut through the emblem tape.

If the fender AND the emblem where both nice I would use a strong fishing line to cut through the tape while doing less damage to the paint job.

The '89-'90 fender emblems have plastic locating studs, so be aware of those so you don't cut through them.

I sent you a PM on those emblems.

Does it still have the 1/2 ton front suspension under the Cummins?

Does it ride soft or does it bottom out a lot.

How about the running gear?

Jim

Jim, I believe it still has the original 86 suspension, it doesn’t ‘bottom out’ but it sure as heck doesn’t ride soft. I’m getting the suspension worked on next Wednesday (6/28) and putting a 3” lift put on. I didn’t even consider that they redid the suspension for the Cummins in 1990, any suggestions when I upgrade next week?
Thanks,
Ron
