Stainless Cummins Rocker Pedestals | Parts Bin EP 26 | Power Driven Diesel

In episode 26 of the Parts Bin, Will and Todd discuss PDD Stainless Rocker Pedestal upgrades for 12v Cummins. These innovative pedestals tremendously increase valvetrain stability and prevent pin and rocker arm galling that is common with today's CJ/CK spec 15w-40 diesel engine oil. Tune in to learn the details about these new rocker pedestals and why you should have them on your Cummins-powered vehicle.

[@WatsonFabrication]

[@mustangdemon87]

Finally a permanent fix to my leaking covers being pushed around!!! Thanks guys!

[@pddofficial]

Great to hear!

[@ericroman6182]

Good morning fellas

[@pddofficial]

Morning

[@mikestrucks]

Very nice parts as usual 💪🏻👍🏻

[@pddofficial]

Thank you! 👍

[@woos31]

Those are sweet guys! I can't get over how you guys take it to the next level, and I'm not saying this because I am as I imagine full well that people all over the world wish they had better factory parts available for whatever their fancy is........but, way to be AMERICAN and when you can't find a way to make the factory parts last and just making your own, just far more badass than factory ever thought (well they were thinking mass production as lowest cost possible) of making. I want these on my factory 6.7 cummins just because lol, someday it'll have a bad attitude but for now it's got plenty for me.........aside from the lazy pedal and factory clutch, soon to be gone though

[@valve-do3jc]

Dang it I just bought a head from you guys. I haven’t put it on yet I’ll just upgrade. Hook a brother up. 👌🏼

[@coalstang]

beauty ! nice pieces boys.

[@pddofficial]

Thank you kindly

[@jackkrinkov9273]

Will is really fired up for these rockers! Is he standing on a milkcrate?

[@mustangdemon87]

Soapbox! Hahaha jk

[@Parents_of_Twins]

Batawing Base Rocker Pedestal. So I'm thinking PDD BBR-Pedestal which should be anagram positive.

[@willobrien3413]

More awesome parts you guys came up with after you built my engine lol. I imagine these will work with a Hamilton street head also.?.

[@pddofficial]

These fit every 12 valve cummins head, so yes they will fit the Hamilton street heads!

[@SunriseCrawlers]

It would be super cool to built my 12v motor that just sits in my garage

[@danrupprecht2836]

We found out that farm and fleet sae 40 oil plus rislone zddp additive is way better any street oil out there. We had a blow by issue running Kendall racing oil and also Rotella t-4 conventional oil and when we switched to the farm and fleet it is gone

[@bobr9127]

Those look awesome but i do have some new found skepticism of PPD oil after seeing the inside of tina 😬

[@jasontruman1215]

They clearly said it was WAY past due in another video.

[@bobr9127]

@@jasontruman1215 how much past do? Oh thats right you have no idea, thanks for your input, big help

[@pddofficial]

about 20,000 miles on that oil

[@FriedPotatoFarmer]

I ran their oil for 16k miles with that $40 fleetguard internal bypass filter and sent a sample off to Blackstone labs to be analyzed. They came back and said there was at least 3k left on that oil and probably more. It compared favorably to a standardized 8k mile sample they had. The only odd thing was elevated levels of copper, which I later realized was the anti-seize from the head studs I installed before I added the oil. All I can say is I'm running it again. 2016 6.7 Cummins with stock VGT and stock injectors

[@jasontruman1215]

@@bobr9127 you didn’t have to be so rude…. PDD said it was at 20k doesn’t matter what brand you use if you don’t run a bypass system it is going to be all sludged up.

[@brandynrobida7356]

Those are sweet, are they on your website yet?

[@pddofficial]

Yes, they are on the website here: powerdrivendiesel.com/product/pdd-rocker-towers-w-pins-6bt/

[@lamarzimmermanmennonitefar5269]

How hard are you in relation to the head material? No pun😂

[@michaeloaks9268]

Will these work with pdd head socket bolts I bought a set and I yet to put them in

[@pddofficial]

no you will need the head stud now as they are pre machined for that

[@BiffsEquipment]

I’m assuming this is only for the 12v? Will this fit a 24v?

[@pddofficial]

Only 12v trucks

[@jackprick9797]

@@pddofficialdo the 24v have same soft material issues? After 440k miles I am looking at my rockers and trunions. They have a minimal amount of galling. Can probably go another 100k miles. I would like to upgrade to something like this batwing pedastal, with better material and oiling.

[@cs-gj3yf]

why does todds voice sound so much deeper

[@pddofficial]

just got done being sick

[@dixiemae5042]

First to say first 🙈

[@ChannelZeroOne]
