Product Description
The BD DIESEL 1050224 OEM Replacement Lift Pump Kit is a direct replacement solution for 1998.5–2002 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 trucks equipped with the 5.9L 24-valve Cummins engine. When a factory lift pump fails, fuel pressure to the VP44 injection pump drops—leading to hard starts, poor drivability, and shortened VP44 life. This kit restores proper fuel supply using the stock plumbing and factory mounting location.
Designed for stock horsepower applications, this lift pump kit installs easily and functions as an OE-style replacement. It mounts in the factory location, uses the factory lines, and is a reliable option when replacing a worn or failed pump. If your truck is tuned or running larger injectors, a higher-flow lift pump may be required to maintain fuel pressure under load.

This kit is intended for stock horsepower trucks. Tuned trucks or trucks with larger injectors may require a higher-flow lift pump to maintain fuel pressure under load.
