Over 300,000 miles in Cab and Chassis
Checked my mileage this morning and it was 300,753. The history of this truck has been pretty well documented on this site, the only thing that has happened lately was replacing the drive shaft u-joints (2) and a couple of weeks ago I had a front wheel bearing go out at 297,100 miles on the road and went ahead and replaced the other one about a week later. The truck is still running great and I wouldn't worry about going anywhere in it, it's as sound as it was when it was new, probably more so because it is good and broke in. It has spent its life pulling a 40 ft goose neck around in the oilfields. Will be doing more of the same at daylight tomorrow. I have a complete log of all repairs and and work done on the truck since new. There haven't really been that much considering the mileage and what the truck does.

I have a 5500 with the aisin, I like the trranny a lot. I am looking to do the deletes also and add no HP, are you using a smarty or H&S product to be code free and did you remove the egr and cooler or leave them on ??
Thanks |

Thanks for the info, I would like to use Amsoil but I do not know anyone who has used it in the AISIN.

Ive heard good things about the AISIN trans. Much like the Allison's reputation for strength and durability. I just dont understand why Dodge didnt put it in ALL Cummins powered trucks.
So a leaky EGR, U-joints, and front wheel bearings are all you've done in 300k? |
