  • 59L Vs 67L Cummins Turbo Diesel Juice Modules
    The Juice modules were cleanly mounted under the hood of both trucks on top of the fuse panel. The wires for the turbo timers and Attitude monitors were routed through existing grommets in the firewall.

  • 59L Vs 67L Cummins Turbo Diesel Exhaust Manifold
    The most difficult part of the Juice installation was inserting the pyrometer probe in the exhaust manifold to measure exhaust gas temperatures. This was far easier on the 5.9L (shown) than the 6.7L engine.
