Product Description
MOPAR 5179092AB CRANKCASE BREATHER OIL DRAIN TUBE (SMALL) FOR 06-07 DODGE WITH 5.9L CUMMINS ENGINE
Restore proper crankcase ventilation and oil drainage with the genuine Mopar 5179092AB Crankcase Breather Oil Drain Tube (Small) for 2006-2007 Dodge Ram trucks equipped with the legendary 5.9L Cummins turbo diesel engine. Designed as a direct OEM replacement, this factory breather drain tube helps maintain proper crankcase pressure regulation and routes separated oil back into the engine system.
Over time, factory crankcase breather tubes become brittle and crack due to constant exposure to engine heat, oil vapors, and thousands of thermal cycles. A damaged breather drain tube can lead to oil residue buildup, crankcase pressure leaks, poor ventilation performance, and engine bay contamination. The Mopar 5179092AB provides an exact-fit solution engineered to restore factory crankcase ventilation operation and long-term durability.
This OEM Mopar small breather drain tube is specifically designed for 2006-2007 Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks with the 5.9L Cummins engine. It mounts toward the front of the valve cover near the engine oil fill location and is manufactured using OEM-quality molded materials for proper routing and fitment.
Unlike generic aftermarket hoses, genuine Mopar crankcase ventilation components ensure proper oil resistance, heat tolerance, and factory-level installation accuracy. This direct replacement tube helps maintain reliable crankcase pressure management and supports overall engine longevity.
