Coolant Bypass for 2003-2007 Manual Transmission Fleece Performance

Keep the rear cylinders cool

On the 5.9L Cummins, the cylinders at the back of the block are short on coolant flow and run the hottest. The extra heat can build pressure at the rear of the block and push out freeze plugs, including the small ones under the valve cover.

The Fleece Coolant Bypass adds a second thermostat that works on temperature, not pressure, so all six cylinders stay at an even temperature before pressure ever becomes a problem.

The kit comes with braided hose and AN O-ring fittings for a leak-free install, plus billet hose brackets.

Who it's for

Owners of 2003-2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 5.9L 24-valve (manual transmission) Cummins trucks who want better cooling reliability.
