FITMENT
- 2013–2018 6.7L Dodge Ram Cummins 2500 & 3500 Pickup Turbo Diesel.
- Note: Does NOT fit Cab & Chassis (3500 / 4500 / 5500 C&C) models.
DESCRIPTION
Product Overview
- Intake soot accumulation and plastic coolant fitting failures are ongoing vulnerabilities on factory 6.7L Cummins trucks. The OEM EGR system continually feeds abrasive soot back into the air path, choking engine performance, while factory plastic coolant connectors degrade under heat and vibration—frequently leading to coolant leaks and overheating hazards.
- This 6.7L Cummins Protection Package tackles both issues in one permanent upgrade. Featuring an EGR cooler removal kit and a precision-engineered billet aluminum coolant adapter, it stops intake carbon buildup at the source while upgrading fragile plastic fittings to solid, heat-resistant metal for maximum cooling system dependability.
Key Features
- Permanently removes the EGR cooler and valve assembly to halt exhaust soot recirculation and cooler-related coolant leak risks
- Replaces brittle OEM plastic coolant fittings with a CNC billet aluminum hose barb adapter that resists heat, pressure, and corrosion
- Includes a high-flow throttle valve delete tube to eliminate the restrictive factory butterfly valve and maximize intake CFM
- Lowers under-hood and intake air temperatures by eliminating the flow of hot EGR gases through the engine bay
- Cuts carbon sludge accumulation in the intake tract for cleaner, more efficient combustion over the long haul
FAQ
Q: What exactly fails on the factory coolant fitting?
A: The OEM fitting is made of plastic that undergoes repeated expansion and contraction from engine heat cycles — hot when towing, cold when parked. Over years of this stress, the plastic fatigues, develops hairline cracks, and eventually leaks coolant. The Seguler billet aluminum replacement eliminates the plastic entirely.
Q: How much coolant do I need to drain before installation?
A: Drain roughly 2–3 gallons from the radiator petcock so the fluid level drops below the EGR valve mounting height. This prevents a messy coolant spill when you pull the cooler assembly.
Q: What’s the best way to seat the O-rings on the billet barb adapter?
A: Apply a light coat of clean coolant or silicone-based lubricant to the O-rings before installation. This helps them slide into place without pinching or tearing, ensuring a leak-free seal from the first heat cycle.
Q: Can I upgrade this kit to include a DPF delete exhaust pipe?
A: Yes — this kit handles the intake and cooling side. For the exhaust, pair it with the 4" Exhaust Pipe & EGR Delete Kit to delete the DPF and catalytic converter for a complete intake-to-exhaust solution.
