When you invest in 5.9L/6.7L Cummins, you’re planning to keep it on the road for the long haul. At some point in the life of that engine,  the factory head screws will need to be upgraded to head studs. Thoroughbred Diesel makes this easy with their premium Head Stud Kit for your 1998.5-2021 Dodge 2500/3500 as it was specifically designed to strengthen up your truck's entire assembly without compromise. Thoroughbred Diesel’s head studs were built much stronger than the OE  head screws and will not stretch like their factory counterparts. This will prevent your truck from popping head gaskets during high-pressure situations

Reviews

  • In what state are these head studs manufactured or are they made in China? Also, will these studs require the valve cover to be milled out to fit once installed or will there be no modification to the valve cover needed?

    Florida, It will be necessary to machine the lower rocker arm cover at the No. 24 bolt hole location

    in the torque sequence to facilitate installation of the lower rocker arm cover

  • Are these (Thoroughbred Diesel Brand) studs made to do one at a time , or do you have to remove the head to install them.

    No head studs are made to be 1 at a time studs. We recommend removing the head to install.
