2008 Dodge 3500HD 4x4 PTO PROBLEM!!!

Alright guys I hope this is the right place for a Post!

I Bought a Brand New Dodge 08 Manual Tranny 4x4 with a PTO application for my business...........Day after I bought it I spent 4 Hours under it looking at 2 PTOs that will not fit on it because of the Drive Shaft 4x4 and the Exhaust.

Alright...The Dealership basically said Tough tooty and they specifically ordered a truck that it would work for...Well it doesnt!

Who can help me Im having a fit over 35K and cant use it with my system...


I need:
RANGE

30-40 GPM

2000-2500 PSI


Plus the biggie is It is 6 inches to the Front Drive Shaft, the Muncie and Chelsea pto will barely fit but the adapter and the pump is jacked up on the bell housing and the Drive shaft...

Id hate to even attempt to tackle the Exhaust side.

Anyone... 4x4 junkies or work vehicle experts.......

HOW ABOUT THAT!!!

Looks great Ill try it. I know the heat from the ExhAUST may shorten the life of the PTO and Pump but hell its cheaper than 35K!!

I was wrong with the Flow needed also...17-20GPM..

GOOD NEWS!!

Still no fix!

My 08 Dodge 4x4 3500 seems to be the one forgotten to put an accessory plate, or enough room on right and left for the PTO and pump. Dodge salesperson said, TOUGH "once you buy it and sign its yours," nevermind he made the order and said this is exactly what you need!!

Anyone work for DODGE.....

Anyone an attorney?

What is protocall for a Screw up?

I thought I read on here something about a pto prep group. It can be bought through the parts counter if the truck wasn't ordered with it. I'll do some searching and see if I can find the thread.
