But for real, Cummins and a Solid front axle FTW.No worries, I'm not actually back, I'm just reminiscing about the old days.

I would go for a cummins. They seem pretty bulletproof. I have nothing against a duramax tho.

Both good motors. Cummins will outlast the Dmax. Hell the Cummins will outlast the truck. You will have to replace front end parts in both. Duramax will ride nicer. The chevy will have its shitty plastic interior. Brakes are much better in the Dodge.
They will do more then you ask them to.Molten Motorsports - #4343/4443Comment

my thoughts and ideas so far. The Duramax has better injectors with tech far beyond Cummings and comes standard with an allison tranny(bulletproof), and I tend to be bias against the Cummings because i have worked on Cummings engines for the past 10 months everyday and they seem like garbage. While I know Cummings has a great name in the diesel truck world i just dont know what makes them better than a duramax. I also know that detroit had a hand with GM designing the Duramax which is a plus. I'm looking for mechanical advantages and disadvantages to both engines, and anything with either truck that would be a big plus or minus1991 YJ, 1 tons, locked, lots o armor, stretched, cageComment

I think duramax injectors were fixed by 03. The ride in a duramax is MUCH nicer then a cummins. Allison transmission is also a huge plus. Plus when you put a nice exhaust on a duramax they sound like a jet
