Cummins 5.9

Will a Cummins engine drop into a 87 Ford Crew Cab or do you need an adapter plate and tons of other stuff.

They fit very well. Some of our finer members have done this swap and love it. I think every member should have an id & a cummins powered F350 dually crewcab in their fleet.

I could have talked a lot about what all it takes to do the swap, but it has been covered so well in several of those threads in the conversion forum, I hated to tell you information that might have been wrong.

Looked back at my post and didn't want to be the guy who just yells at folks about how it has already been covered and why did you ask again! Haha.

If I had a 5.9 laying around, I would be finding a body to put it in!

I plan to IDI the Bronco, Cummins the standard cab, and DT360 the dually crew cab

...and DT360 the dually crew cab

It's a fun project.

I have a 6.9 in the Truck with 650K. I'm starting to get some blow by and would like pull the motor to rebuild it. But with everything going on. (House under construction) so I'm already buyer that a w***e on Saturday night. I had some one tell me that the 5.9 was a drop in engine. It would appears
he didn't no what he was talking about. Eather way I've got to come up with a solution soon. I live in Wyoming but run to Buffalo every spring. That truck makes the run with a horse trailer fill with something ever time. I think I my have to winter in Buffalo this year to get it done.[emoji15]

In that case, I'd drop another 6.9 or 7.3 in.
