BD Diesel Exhaust Brake Vacuum Turbo Mount - 1989-1998 Dodge Ram 5.9L Cummins

Plenty of first- and second-gen Cummins trucks still earn a living, and adding an exhaust brake is one of the best things you can do for one that tows. This BD brake bolts to the turbo outlet and is actuated with a 60 psi setup.

It builds controlled backpressure so the engine helps hold the load back on grades, which keeps your service brakes cooler.

• Up to 150 retarding horsepower (BD rating)
• Turbo-mount design, 60 psi
