Did some searching with no definitive answers. The weird c channel clamp that holds the elbow onto the turbo snapped and unfortunately that leaves me without a ride since it made the exhaust loose. I need the part number and quickest place to get one please guys.

Not the elbow to downpipe clamp, the turbo to elbow clamp closest to the compressor housing.

TIA

Start with Cummins then go to Dodge a good muffler shop might have one as well..

 

Thank you sir!, I will look around good since I cant do anything til Monday anyways. I hear they are pricey pieces...

 

Rick if Im not mistake I think they are right at 80 bucks.

 

Ouch...

Has anyone found an alternative to the special clamp??? 80 bucks for a piece of metal wow....

 

No I think its one of those "specialty items" that you cant replace with a quick fix. I always heard the same thing, try Cummins first and then the dealer.

 

Found this via a Google on the Cummins #:

Hmm looks right but not sure on the part number, it actually has a A49 prefix in front of the part #. Dang I hate hard to locate pieces like this...

 

You can check heavy truck parts, they use V band clamps on a lot of parts besides the turbocharger on class-8 trucks including filter housings, air driers.

I know around my area places like Freightliner are open 24/7.

What part of the clamp broke? can it be welded for a temporary fix?

See these are not anything special and they are used on many things.

What do you think, can that be welded??? Thanks for all the replies so far....

 

This is the style clamp I am looking for, roll formed v clamp. Now I hear holset made their v clamps with a special size, so in you opinions would these still do the trick??? And what size would I be looking for, 4"???

 

Rick a good TIG hand could fix that for you, but it would only be a temp fix. That thin of metal with that heat applied would just fatigue again.

 

Shame you are so far away I could tig that no problem to get you going till you could get a new one.

 

No problems guys, you all are a great group!

Went ahead and just ordered one from the dealership. I will be researching alternative clamps for our trucks because that is an outrageous price....

 

How much did they get you for?
