Product Description
Mopar 5159965AA HE351CW Turbo to Cast Elbow V-Band Clamp for 2003-2007 Dodge 5.9L Cummins
The Mopar 5159965AA HE351CW Turbo to Cast Elbow V-Band Clamp is a genuine OEM replacement clamp designed to secure the factory HE351CW turbocharger outlet to the cast turbo outlet elbow on 2003-2007 Dodge Ram trucks equipped with the 5.9L Cummins diesel engine. This critical component helps maintain a secure, leak-free connection between the turbocharger and exhaust outlet assembly, ensuring proper turbocharger performance and exhaust flow.
Over time, factory V-band clamps can become weakened by heat cycles, corrosion, vibration, and repeated removal during maintenance. A damaged or improperly sealing clamp can contribute to exhaust leaks, reduced turbocharger efficiency, excessive soot buildup, and drivability concerns. Replacing a worn clamp with a genuine Mopar 5159965AA helps restore factory sealing and reliability.
Manufactured to OEM specifications, this clamp provides the proper fit, clamping force, and durability required for demanding diesel towing, daily driving, and performance applications.
