Cummins 5.9L in dakota
hey guys i know i dont post to often but im toying with the idea of dropping a diesel in my dakota. does anyone know if it will fit in the engine bay? im thinking i could use copart.com to find a dodge ram 2500 with the motor as a parts truck and just transfer what i need to make it work. any opinions would be welcome!

yea stuffs gonna need cut up, you will probably need to make room in the front for the intercooler and in the back for the transmission,
you might want to look at boxing the frame to handle the torque,
and make sure the front suspension can handle the weight, that should be pretty simple since you're doing that SAS
getting the whole truck should make it easier, since you could even use all the gauges. swap out all the electronics

Banks power put a 5.9 Cummins in a dodge dakota. Check on youtube for videos. I seen one somewhere that showed how they built it. It might be on there websites. bankspower.com. I ve thought about doin the same thing but it would be kinda hard to push the fire wall back in a reg. cab. Thats truck was called a sidewinder i think.
