big head wastegate
I have a 2002 ctd 4x4 automatic banks big hoss tuner and high ram. I have been searching for info on the big head and cant seem to find any so I stopped in here. I have a hard line leading from the turbo to the wastegate and I cant see how to get it off with out cutting it. I have read about the edge boost elbow but i cant seem to find anything for that year. The big head came off a 99 ctd and banks said it should work but I dont want to cut that hard line without some advice.

That line should just pull off. I may be a little hard, but it will come off.
It has a clip on either end and with a little wrangling you should be able to get it off.
It may be pretty well stuck to the nipples, so yes, you may have to cut it, but you can get a section of hose right ar NAPA.
Just make sure you get silicone hose to deal with the heat in that area. Rubber will break down too fast.
And, this is what you're looking for in that adjsutable boodt elbow.
Let me know if ya need help with one.

I will try and snap a picture of it tonight if I can. The truck is actually my buddies I am helping him work on, hes computer illerate. The truck was bought used with everything done to it already. We had started to put on the a pillar gauges and noticed that it had a big hoss installed. That was a nice suprise but we noticed it didnt have any power running to it. Its also had some transmisson work done to it as well. I have read a little bit about being a different line for a automatic compared to a manual transmission. The turbo is fairly loud compared to other dodges I have came across but it does have the silencer ring removed and its not exactly impressive to drive so I woudlnt imagine it has had turbo work done. Thanks for you help coal train.

Im not having any luck as far as getting a damn picture of it. I did get the big head manual from banks and the diagram they have for the wastegate has it sitting 90 degrees from where it is now. I am going to be at this diesel thing on saturday here in yuba city that left coast is putting on. If you are coming I will have the truck with us there.
edit: all that banks stuff was on the truck or came with it so its just a matter of putting it on.
