I have a Crew cab and I'm wanting to put a 12V Cummins motor with a NV4500 married to it how can i do that, what need to be done.

 

Crewcab's are very simple . your best bet is to get a donor truck . That way you have all the wiring and all the small stuff . you will need to relocate the wiring bulkhead over some so the clutch pedal can be Mounted . Do a search on here .there have been Several done . Just Takes Time .

 

Trashingcows and many others here have detailed treads / write ups on this.
Grab a beer sit down and do some reading.

 

As Ramguy mentioned a donor is very helpful, but not completely necessary. Plenty of people have swapped in a cummins with no donor. You just won't have the cummins info center, automatic grid heaters, and a couple other functions. Just depends on how close to an original cummins 1st gen you want your truck to be.

On that thought, and this could effect your decision, you also need to decide if you are going with an intercooler or not? Lots of things to consider, and a detailed build thought out before you start will save you time and money down the road.

 

Where would I find the posts of guys putting the Cummins 12v in their trucks?

 

Here is my build thread....

Mine should be in my signature

 

Thrashingcows and Gyman have 2 really good crew cab builds!

 

And a couple Canadians EH!!!

 

Whatever you do, dont listen to a single word Oliver Foster says. He doesnt have a clue regarding anything technical of these old Dodges

 

must be th long cold winters

 

In case this was not clear, I do believe NJTman was being sarcastic.

His sense of humor isn't normal.

That being said, there are a lot of people here with MUCH more technical knowledge/background than me.

I just wrench on 1st gen 12Vs and if I am lucky, my '85 crew cabs often.
I just don't post many pictures as I am a little special that way.

 

Yes you are....Now put your Helmet on and go to bed....

 

Normal ? Well, that's another thing you have not a clue about.....

 

What is normal? I don't know what that is.
