How has the highest mileage cummins... <br><br>Post what you have or have had.... a friend is pushing 289K with no problems yet.. Even the water pump is original... Anyone beat it?

 

85,000 miles. Had to have a tranny rebuild at 37,000 miles. That was pretty serious, but it's the only problem I've ever had until now. I think I'm going through some VP-44 issues but I need to complete some more tests first with Cummins, and replace some sensors

 

Was that with a Auto or a Manual... <br>I am getting a Auto on my new Cummins, tried of jamming gears in city traffic

 

My sons truck 96 CTD Extended Cab, Long Box 201,000, One fuel<br>pump, not injection pump. One fuel shutdown switch. Rebuilt tranny at 118,000. (automatic) <br><br>My truck, nothing yet for engine and tranny. Did brakes at 55k,<br>A/C compressor clutch came apart at 75k, replaced unit and the rest of the mess, I now have a slight leak in the evaporator. Bugger to get to and not cheap. <br><br>Dave

 

Have a buddy with a '98 4x4 5-speed. 392,000 + miles, and it tows every single day. Plows in the winter months too. He runs a delivery service between two remote cities, about 160 miles each way towing a 24 foot Pace enclosed cargo trailer. Only problems were 3 of the early 5-speeds that were famous for the nut backing off. Routine service and knowing how to drive what you've got speak volumes.

 

I have 154K on one of the last Y2K models.

My list:
Lift pumps at 40K, 90K, and 135K.
Track bars at 45K, 80K, and 120K
New Michelins at 50K and 120K
Edge EZ at 90K
Crank position sensor at 150K
11 oil changes
6 fuel filters
9150 gallons of #2
3300 hours of smiling
All in US miles no Kilometers
