We cool... Although it would be interesting g to see what dealer cost actually is, because few years ago went to get a new pump for the 07 5.9.
Figured easy peasy since there's like millions of CR 5.9s and ISBs out there, right.
Well Cummins Northwest, no gots. Pape Kenworth NW, no gots.
Parts stores, only have cheapos and Gates pumps.
Hit up the ole Dosge dealer. Sure we got one guy says. Cool I say, I'll take it. Figured it might cost a bit more. Guy says $360 + tax sir!
Wtf? I said, sorry, thought I was at the parts counter not the service counter, I'm installing it my self. How much just to buy it?
$360 sir!
