Diesel Engine Repair Kits
New Engine Kits for Selected Cummins ISX Engine Applications Available
IPD, a leading aftermarket provider of engine components for heavy-duty diesel and natural gas powered engines, announces the launch of several new kits for selected Cummins® ISX engine applications. These kits feature a new “closed skirt” design EGR piston, which replaces two previous EGR piston designs.
This new EGR piston is available in a piston kit, cylinder kit, and in-frame kit (part numbers shown below). Features include a reduced diameter top land that helps to reduce oil consumption, and also minimizes liner polishing due to carbon packing. This top land specification allows any carbon that forms to flake off instead of forming a bridge between the piston and liner. It is important to note that open and closed skirt design pistons must never be combined together within an engine.
• EGR Piston Kit # 2881879 (replaces 4955968 & 4089898)
• Cylinder Kit # PLG2881879
• In-Frame Kit # IF1879/96
Note: This popular EGR piston is used in, but not limited to, the following engine CPL numbers: 1437, 2732, 3229, 8287, 8288, 8520, 8523IPD continues to expand the IPD brand of high quality replacement parts for Cummins®
applications.
“IPD is aware of a growing need in the market for cost effective, high performance ISX service replacement alternatives, specifically for closed skirt EGR piston applications,” notes Steve Scott, Director of Product Development and Technical Support at IPD. “These new kits further expand our popular Cummins® line of high quality service replacement components.”
