    Hi to all I'm a newbie here and was wandering if you guys could help me out?

    I'm going to be ordering a new ram 3500. Below is an post i put out on a few diesel forums that explains what i have currently and what im doing with the new truck but the main thing im wandering from you guys is how the as69rc and the g56 are holding up or not holding up to the heavy hauling and high milage you guys do, any and all advice is appreciated! There aren't alot of guys on the diesel forums that put on alot of miles and haul heavy. I'm also going to be doing more camper deliveries this year so im guessing ill be running in the nabor hood of 75k-100k miles this year and hopefully years to come

    Thanks for your time and input!!!

    I'm going to be buying a new truck with in the next month or two i'm at a cross roads between the g56 and the aisin 69. I tow 18,000lb camper for my own recreation and also deliver campers for a few local camper dealers so its loaded most the time between 20-32k combined depending on the camper. Current truck is 08 ram 3500 68rfe purchased used in 2010 with 27,000 miles and has been deleted and had 2nd gen turbo sense 55,000 miles, it currently has 286,000 miles and has been a good truck over all except for the trans which is my own fault, running at 400-425hp. Prior to that i had a 06 ram 2500 G56 drove for 98,000 miles and loved this truck but was in need of a 3500 dually so it had to go. I never towed much with it so i have no experience with the durability of the g56 towing heavy/for alot of miles, i did have a tuner on it and was pretty hard on it with no problems but that really doesn't compare to heavy high miles.

    As for the new truck, It will be deleted and i will be installing a 2nd gen turbo setup with either a bd or pac exhaust break immediately. Probably going to be running it in the same 425-450hp range, if i go with the g56 it will also be getting a sb street dd or a valair street dd right off the bat. I would really like to go with the g56! I am skeptical if it will hold up tho. Ive heard great things about the latest aisin 69 and will go that route if need be for durability.

    Also for tuning i would like to run the raceme ultra this go around as i like the all in one with gauges , Ive read that custom tuning is going to be available soon, do you guys know if this is true? If not ill have to go with the old trusty Efi thru anarcky or maybe try hpp this time. I like the data logging of the efi so i can get things tweaked in for my specific truck and needs. Not a fan of box tuning. If raceme ultra can offer me data logging and custom tuning now or in the near future, then i will definitely go with them.

    I was hoping to hear from some of you guys that haul heavy daily and put on alot of miles with the g56 and guys running the aisin 69? What failures and problems are you guys having with either one? Also any info on raceme ultra? Your input will be greatly appreciated!!!

    Thanks!!!! [​IMG]
