First and foremost, I enjoyed your shifting. I've been driving Peterbilts for over 26 yrs. And seen and still see people that CAN'T shift. Nice driving.
@@javierhernandez215 absolutely not, it's an exhaust brake. You ease off throttle, pull knob or flip your switch, then let er sing. Flip off, gear down repeat if need be. It's to assist stopping or slowing down, prevents brakes overheating/warpin rotors if you weighted. Handy shit when you got a butt puckerin load.
@@javierhernandez215 its an exhaust brake though, not a jake brake, if youre used to jake brakes the braking factor isnt going to be near as much but im sure it helps if you have alot of weight every bit of heat kept out of the brakes in the moutains is nice.. but unless youre towing 25000lbs over the rockys its probably not necessary disk brakes and even drums have come along way since the days of them fading out to nothing even when the truck is under its rated capacity.. im sure part of a truck getting a capacity of say 31,000lbs towing is that it has to be able to brake all that weight without fading on even the worst roads in the country, the roads are built to a standard too that takes this into account
Beautiful, sounds healthy, and awesome driving. I have a 12 valve myself, and I need to get around to fixing some stuff on the poor guy. Gotta get the pac-brake to stop sticking, service the rear sway bars, fix the hole in the transfer case and get the 5th gear welded back on... 👀 Other than that she still runs pretty darn smooth all these years later. Could definitely benefit from new engine mounts though, and for that matter it might not hurt to replace the lift pump. And a wishlist item is to upgrade the steering to 4th Gen as well... Dang, more to fix up than I realized I guess. Sheesh.
@@Split9-lf4cs sorry, RUclips never sent me the notification lol. I always respond when I get it. She's a '97 4x4 with the 4500 + Gear Vendors and an SRW Dana 80 rear axle paired with some heavy duty steel wheels with 14 ply 19.5's, so I call her the Dodge Ram 3000 lol. Been fixing it up the last few months and one thing after the other keeps breaking or wearing. Definitely a project truck for the foreseeable future, so it's a good thing that I finally got a new job. 🤣
@@sticky40sx71 you need a controller to communicate with the auto trans to keep the torque convertor in lockup when using the exhaust brake,otherwise you will over heat your tranny from high pressure oil shear,,and yes it will damage it,and will get very expensive
Another video of wow. Simple minds in today's world... lol lol I dont care if he shifts with a clutch. An exhaust brake is a poor man's Jake. But hey I guess what I've been doing for almost 40 years in a normal day every day I never thought of recording it.. hmmm its work and how I get paid. Its expected of me to drive.. and yes started on a 71 cabover gmc.. I wonder if anyone remembers air wipers. Then only air in trucks back when I started. No air ride seats suspension no ac hardly any heat and no power steering. But I never thought of recording it... I could have been a millionaire I guess
I can relate to all non essentials lol got my license in 78 took road test on a r model twin stick. Had to retire from freight in 21 broken back. Ah the good old days
That’s how my older Cummins 12 valve sounded. It could hook up to my 42’ toy hauler that was “loaded for war” & just put it in 2nd gear never riding the clutch & just “walk off” like there was nothing behind her! She sounded like a Peter built ready to breed a ford or Chevy! 😂😂😂
Non synchro manual transmissions are meant to be floated. If you have synchros in the trans like all smaller manual transmissions you are supposed to use the clutch or you will destroy your synchros.
If thats not a drive by wire put a micro switch on the throttle lever at the pump and put a on / off switch on the dash. Release the throttle and you ain’t got to do it manually. Older R model trucks were like that
it has it but with a manual trans when you shift it drags the rpms down faster if left on you simple can't change gears fast enough down shifting i mean i can leave it on in whatever gear and just drive let off gas and it will come on i guess i could rig up the same switch as the throttle pedal for the clutch too i just think that it would be too much of a racket so i just flick it off thats why i got the cook lever lol all the best
Awesome to finally stumble upon a video of someone who can actually drive a manual smooth. Truck sounds great.
He's trying to shift semi style but not double clutching.
@@Ashroyer86 No need to with a synchronized transmission, he’s just matching the revs to keep it running smooth
@@elemento1991 no crap. No point in imitating it if you can't do it though.
You guys are gonna shit your pants when you find out how to shift without using the clutch
@@frankgarrett2517 you mean floating? Oh wait, I guess you're the only one that knows what that means.
When you retire from the big rigs but still need that big rig sensation
💯👍💯👍
Man that turbo sound at 1:07 during his shift is the best. 👌😁
Taching out that high makes it go from sounding like a Cummins to an old 2 stroke Detroit.
Not even close
Very nice you can't beat a 5.9 Cummins and the sound I could listen to it all the time and never get tired of hearing it it's like music to my ears.
Do I see factory buttons on the back of a 2nd gen steering wheel??
Whats your exhaust setup. Everything sounds amazing
Mbrp 4 inch turbo back to dual 6 inch mbrp black stacks
@@nickdiesel8018 appreciate it sir
@@nickdiesel8018 does this system use air to operate ?
@@yankdoodlediesel2574 yes there’s a compressor from bd diesel under the truck
@@nickdiesel8018 ok. I already have air on mine so that would work !
First and foremost, I enjoyed your shifting. I've been driving Peterbilts for over 26 yrs. And seen and still see people that CAN'T shift. Nice driving.
I will add to my sleeping Playlist, very soothing
Best sound ever 👌🏼
Damn that’s a BAD truck 👍 coolest truck and badass driving of it
That's some sweet rev matching right there bud. Nicely done.
Hi Nick love watching you drive. Show a little pedal action. Luck to you
Instantly one of my favorite videos on RUclips.
Nice down shifting with the break man
Nice driving brother let's keep these 6 speed 5.9's on the road for years to come
3rd gear sound magical
I’m just curious on how the exhaust break works. Look fucking incredible and sounds like a tanker🔥
Basically it shuts a flap sealing in the exhaust which increases compression in the cylinders. increased compression means better engine braking
I drive the same way. Great full video. Amazing sound
Man you must get a smile every time you drive that beauty. gorgeous truck.
100% a truck driver.
very nice sound of that truck also good driving
Another cummins owner thinks it's a Pete. 😂I'll never stop laughing. Being a cummins owner that knows its just a light duty pickup.
Sick setup. How well does the exhaust brake work? Will it significantly slow down the truck when pulling a trailer?
Yes it does work perfect like it should
@Nick Diesel but how does it work? With the Red button? Do you have any issues while on cruise control?

It sounds so much like a semi
Just needs a CB radio and big electric train horn. He be Billy silly big rigger.🤔🤔😜🤪😜😜🤪😜😜🤪🙄
I need a second gen
Your truck is awesome
Awesome video
Where u from. See the robins cup haha
Looks like Newfoundland I’d imagine, Robins all the way tho

How do you get that engine brake? I'm new to cumin and I would like to know. 😮
Very well done video straightforward excellent keep up the great work
This reminds me of riding in my dads 98 3500 hauling the camper
You forgot to upshift with the jakes on like a real super trucker
No Convences con ese video y peor con ese 😢freno motor paysano
Love the sound of your truck man
0:12 😩
Man I’d kill for a clean 24 valve
Ikr
Truck sound Great!
Is this bad on your turbo? Will this work for an automatic?
No and yes.

@@wuffa4503 ah I heard something like that. Good to know, thanks
Wouldn’t this put stress on the bottom end as your essentially cause extra back pressure on the pistons thus putting more pressure on the crank?
Do you know how a jake brake works? this is alot easier than that lol
I will need to be this dude
Why is this video hours long??
Look left if you know whats u p.
I gotta find a clean 2nd gen.
Le rêve en France mai trop polluent
Split rear ends are garbage.
Sounds absolutely amazing 👍🏼
2:10 for me sounds so good
love to watch you drive

Not sure why you was pattin the throttle when you downshifted each time? To rev match it for smooth shifts I’m assuming?
Yes sir
Tow mirrors up 🤙🏾

Im curious tyo why your using you clutch past 1st gear
I like to keep my syncros in good shape !
Non synchro manual transmissions are meant to be floated. If you have synchros in the trans like all smaller manual transmissions you are supposed to use the clutch or you will destroy your synchros.
Hey dude. My grandpa said he would sell me is 99 2500 for 18k. It’s got 90 thousand miles but I feel like that’s a bit much what do you think
Only Cummins sound like real trucks. Rest are v8s that kill the low growl.
Man I need my self a diesel! Looking into a duramax 6.6? Any suggestions I don’t know much about disel engines.
Goin get kone for my 01 24v need one bad thanks for vid
Would putting $40k total, to acquire and "restore" a 2nd gen, be worth it or should I just find a low-mile manual 4th gen?
What type of exhaust brake did you put on
Bd diesel
I drive a x15 cummins and man it sounds similar to this engine they way it revs
Parece o som do Volkswagen 24-250 top e tbm e Cummins
Float them gears, I bought a truck with that thang on it I thought it it was just a splitter, thx.
This is a truck You’d drive just for fun.
Are the exaust brakes hard on the motor or do u need head studs?
You only need to install heavier exhaust valve springs
Sounds great but no need for the clutch after 1st gear!
We’re did you purchase this exhaust brake
Do u need to clutch these or can u float it like a semi?
It would be bad ass to drive this truck
Hell yeah you know what’s up. Robins coffee is the best 😎😎😎
Purrrrtyyyyyy what exhaust have you got set up on her
Got to get one for my 04 5.9 automatic.
Does installing a Jake brake on a 24v modify any wiring causing the computer not to establish a connection through the OBD port?
Might as well be a semi at this point 😂😂
I have an exhuast brake on my 12 valve it's fun
Do these work on auto trans? I have a dt466 bus that I want to make safer.
Hello, a query for what is that you press??
What turbo & exhaust manifold you running? 4" or 5" exhaust?
4 inch too dual 6 inch stacks
@@nickdiesel8018 ahh ok ok, thanks!
Stock manifold
It sounds like a fucking semi
This vid finna put me to sleep 😩
This is the definition of a man’s truck 👍👍
What exhaust are you running? sounds great
slammin gears and chuggin beers
Very nice downshifting
Lot of hotshot guys are jelly
:
Is that an extended shifter?
Automatic exhaust brakes are much better.
Also more complicated to install and only work with preset settings
So is this just cable activated or both cable and vacuum? I didn’t see just a manual brake with a lever like that
That’s an Electrical switch
Is that a stock turbo bro?
Might fine rig Sir.
healthy transmissions always make me jealous
This sounds absolutely fire 🔥
Them downshifts tho 🤤
If thats not a drive by wire put a micro switch on the throttle lever at the pump and put a on / off switch on the dash. Release the throttle and you ain’t got to do it manually. Older R model trucks were like that

Get your foot off the clutch!
Does this happen to be the mint condition dually the 70yr old man had in Northern California that he sold last year for about $29k?
No
I just bought one for 25.9 plus 399 dock, 133.6k spring,tn.
