Banks Brake® '04.5-05

Application: 2004 1/2-05 Dodge Cummins | Manual transmission 

A total system solution with enhanced transmission control for exhaust braking, Banks' direct-mount, no-maintenance exhaust brake has electronics that monitor critical engine and transmission parameters to maximize braking efficiency.
