Product Description
The BD DIESEL 2033143 Exhaust Brake is a high-performance engine braking system for 1994–1997 Ford 7.3L Power Stroke trucks equipped with a vacuum-actuated turbo mount. Designed to add significant retarding power and control on descents, this exhaust brake uses BD’s exclusive Variable Orifice Technology, rugged cast-iron housings, and a stainless steel butterfly shaft to withstand the high heat and pressure of diesel exhaust environments.
Built for serious downhill control and reduced brake wear, the 2033143 exhaust brake delivers up to 150 ft-lbs of retarding horsepower throughout the RPM range. Its cast-iron construction and corrosion-resistant hardware provide durability in extreme conditions. This system is ideal for trucks used in hauling, towing, mountainous terrain, or frequent highway descents where supplemental braking performance enhances safety and reduces standard brake wear.
