I have a 2011 2500 RAM deleted and was wondering if anyone has put everything back on and had success? I am using a Mini Max tuner as well.

I would assume diesel and emissions, if you didn't do the delete, or have all the hardware, plan on spending some change, fortunately for you that truck would be pre DEF but the filter and egr hardware is still very spendy. Yes it can be done successfully, but at what cost, you can probably buy a different non deleted truck cheaper then putting it back to stock. If someone has, would give or sell the parts to you used, you could do it reasonably, but never know the quality, not many trucks getting deleted because they were working just fine

Who deleted it? Have you looked in the recycle bin?

I have all the parts. It was running with no codes before the delete.

Just not something anyone here has done.....

Putting the parts back on is probably only going to be half the battle. Likely there was some programming involved as well..... Getting yourself a service manual for your truck would probably be a good first step.....

take it for the 67a recall, bet it gets all back to stock , but no that will probably end up with hefty bill attached to it. I just don't understand your question or the confusion, yes you can bolt the parts all back on, you will need it tuned back to stock, which honestly if you bolt the hardware on then go in for the 67a you probably wont get billed because the recall is just re-flashing the software, however it may only apply to def vehicles.

The tuner I have has the option to program back to stock settings. I was hoping someone has done this with success.

Well I found a solution. I traded it in and got a new one. They had buyers looking for deleted tricks..
