Engine Brake for Cummins N14

It’s not usual people add jakes to a motor that didn’t have one. More to it than just bolting them on to the top of head and installing a toggle. Like I said, it can be labor intensive and you should probably not buy used jakes. Also you have a computer in that truck that’s gonna have to be programmed. Just saying, I would talk to your mechanic more in depth and get a guaranteed quote from him and make him stand by his work. It can be done and has been done plenty of times. But it’s gonna cost a couple grand and upwards of 5 grand with new jakes from a reputable installer. Just lookin out bro

 

Oh yeah I agree my friend. sounds like you know what’s up. If I was you, I would throw some dual 8 inch stacks on it. N14 with jakes and stacks. Omg!

 

Pacbrake is alternative to a jake brake. May be able to save a few $

Search Tech or Tec Brake if you cannot find a used set.

 

easy install on a N14, call up Jacobs or Cummins. has easy to follow instructions. will have a whole rocker cover to add right ontop of the valves.

 

So did you ever get this sorted out? I've got an 01 9200 and apparently international wasnt fond of ordering trucks with Jake's on them because I dont have them either.

Ive looked at Jacob's install manual and it seems pretty straight forward on the wrench side of things.

I've also seen the pacbrake but not sure just how it's different or better if at all than the factory unit

 

I'm looking at a Freightliner that needs one too. Planning on calling tomorrow and see what it takes.
