Product Description
CUMMINS 3093946 OEM REGULAR HEXAGON NUT – P7100 THROTTLE LINKAGE BALL NUT – RAM 5.9L 12V (1994–1998)
The genuine CUMMINS 3093946 OEM regular hexagon nut is the correct factory hardware used to secure the P7100 throttle linkage ball stud on the 1994–1998 5.9L 12-valve Cummins. If your throttle linkage feels loose, inconsistent, or has excessive play, this small but critical OE nut ensures precise throttle control and proper P-pump operation. Whether you're rebuilding a P7100, refreshing worn linkage components, or restoring factory pedal response, this Cummins hardware eliminates guesswork and guarantees OEM fitment.
This nut is manufactured to Cummins material and tolerance specifications, ensuring tight clamping force, correct thread engagement, and vibration resistance to handle the harsh diesel environment. Many aftermarket linkage kits use generic hardware that loosens over time—avoid that problem by using 100% genuine Cummins.
Pair with other Cummins linkage and pump components such as the CUMMINS 3918962 throttle linkage ball stud and related OEM hardware to complete the system.
