Fleece Performance Coolant Bypass Kit

1998–2002 Dodge Ram 2500 / Ram 3500 Cummins

FPE-CLNTBYPS-CUMMINS-VP

Overview:

The Fleece Performance Coolant Bypass Kit is engineered specifically for Dodge Ram 2500 and Ram 3500 trucks equipped with the 1998 to 2002 Cummins diesel engines. Designed out of necessity, this kit addresses the cooling limitations of the factory system, which was originally built to support engines producing between 300 and 350 horsepower. As horsepower increases through performance upgrades, the stock cooling system struggles to maintain optimal temperatures, potentially leading to overheating and reduced engine longevity.

This coolant bypass kit enhances the cooling efficiency by rerouting coolant flow, allowing the engine to maintain safer operating temperatures under higher loads. It is an essential upgrade for Cummins owners who have modified their trucks for increased power or heavy-duty applications, ensuring reliable cooling performance and protecting your investment.
