2500 & 3500

[Mudstoy]

Is there a difference in the 6.7 cummins turbo diesel engine of the 2500 and the 3500

 

[JoshR104]

Yes the output. 2500 is detuned slightly only making like 850 foot pounds of torque. The 3500 is the high output that makes the full 1k.

from a power output perspective, the 3500 with the Aisin trans will be rated higher than the 2500 with the 68RFE.

Obviously load carrying capacity, trailer pin weight rating and a few other suspension bits will be different as well.

It based on the transmission. Not all 3500's are rated at 1000 torque You can get a 3500 with the 68RFE which will not be the 1000 lb/ft rated.
