My 2005 Dmax

Thanks guys :) Glad you like it. I love everything about my Dmax except the IFS front end! Hopefully be replacing that soon!
 
i am a cummins man myself 12v or a 24v it just somin about that inline 6 that does it for me .. plus whne the dmax first came out they were a pain in the ass, they had alot of bugs that needed to be worked out but from what i hear they got um all worked out
 
Yea I think they all have there little problems here and there. 01-02 Dmaxs you can plan on changing the injectors every 20k miles LOL. 03-04 LB7s seem to be pretty maintenance friendly.04.5-05 LLY's are decent but have VVT and EGR so they seem to make alot of heat fast. Egr causes alot of build up in the intercooler and pipping:( The 06-07classic LBZ have the better computer setup the cool mirrors but seem to like to crack pistons I had read that it was because they out sourced the making of the pistons to CHina :( Then theres the newest build the LMM 07-09 They seem to run really stron and some guys are even running Twin CP3's on stock motor:driver: ONly draw back with the LMM is all the emissions stuff but its easy to get around just voids the warranty! LOL who needs one anyway.

As for the cummins I never really heard to much bad about them except for like 1 specific block model the #53 blocks I think they like to crack in half. WOOPS!

There is absolutely no difference between 01-04 LB7s, all have the injector problems....trust me :shaking: LLYs main problem is overheating which is due to a poor air routing mainly, and yea the EGRs tend to soot up the intercooler tubing pretty badly, further restricting airflow, LBZs upgraded the rods that were prone to bending in LB7s, at the expense of pistons that are prone to cracking, mainly due to high EGTs. LMM is almost identical to LMM except all the added emissions. Overall the LB7 and the LBZ are both great engines with just a few problems, but hey they all do, we won't even get into the lemon 04 6.0 Ford the dealer had to buy back from my brother after about 25,000 in warranty work.
