Just picked up a 91 D-250 from my friend. Has the Cummins and Auto trans. It was his grandpas truck and has had it since new. Was just used to pull his fifth wheel camper. Has all the goodies, US gear exhaust brake, Guages(tranny temp, EGT, Boost), and a 50 gal auto feed fuel tank in the bed. Has the usual early dodge paint, but get this, it only has almost 68,000 miles.

nice find!
 
Ditto the great find! I'm loving mine right now... gauge install starts this week and then comes the haze!

I've got a 6pak in it for you if you can find/figure out HTF the exhaust brake works without an electronic lockup torque convertor! :confused:

I don't know much about it myself. The controller has a light on it that tells you when to gear down. On the us gear website, it says that the engine should be running over 2000 RPM's for good braking. I can't say how it works right now b/c it has not been used in prob. 6-8 years and I need to take it out and clean it. They sell a cleaner kit for it. I will keep you posted on how it works.
