Cummins require the heavy heavy diffs, and heavy heavy front suspension. While these dodges were fairly heavy, I'm not certain they were that heavy.
Besides, fuel is still cheap for a little while yet, so feed that 318. |

I looked at a Cummins re-power for my M715 when I had it.
The recommended refit was to go with 14bolt corporate and Dana 60 from a CUCV. As you point out, maybe the 5/4 Dodge is not up to task... What diffs are in that? Dana 60/70?

The Diffs are listed as D44and D60 respectivley. I think a 12v that was anything but stock would be hard on the front. Especially the Warn lockers.
I like the old 318 and it's not like I would ever need it for commuting! I think I'll try an ATIP for the truck. See if it ever went outside ASU Ottawa. |

Good luck on the ATIP. We have tried to recover the old Loomis data for the museum, but it would seem to have suffered the fate of the delete button last summer when the DND shuffled around the defense websites. . |

Well I was surfing Kijiji tonight and tripped across a Dodge Ambulance Body for sale in NS!
No I don't want it, and no connection etc. But I thought the pics were great as they are the ony ones I've seen of the rear showing the bumper and closed doors. |
