Which trucks does the boot kit for Dodge Ram 1994-2002 models fit?

HPS lists part number 57-1576 for the 1994-2002 Dodge Ram pickup with the 5.9L Cummins Diesel. HPS ties the fitment to the Cummins engine and those model years rather than to a 2500 or 3500 badge. The 2003-2007 trucks need a different boot kit for Dodge Ram pickups, HPS part number 57-1568.

Can the boots handle a turned up Cummins?

Yes. HPS designs the boots to withstand over 100 PSI of boost and rates the silicone to a maximum of 500F. Four aramid plies give the boots their strength, and the fluoro lined inner surface resists heat and oil, which suits a 5.9L Cummins running more boost than stock.

What does the kit include?

HPS supplies aramid reinforced silicone intercooler boots and heavy duty stainless steel spring loaded T-bolt clamps. HPS does not publish an itemized boot list for part number 57-1576, so the factory boots are the guide to what is being replaced. The intercooler and the metal charge pipes are reused.

What does installation involve?

The factory clamps are loosened and the old boots pulled from the intercooler and charge pipes. The HPS boots go on in their place and the supplied spring loaded T-bolt clamps are tightened over each joint. HPS gives no install time; on a truck this age, cleaning the pipe ends before the new boots go on is worth the effort.

Why choose aramid reinforced boots over rubber?

Factory boots weaken with heat and age, and HPS states that this leads to premature failure and boots blowing off. Aramid reinforced silicone is rated to 500F, and the fluoro lining adds oil resistance. On a 1994-2002 Ram still running original boots, that durability is the main reason to switch.

HPS Silicone Intercooler Boot Kit for Dodge Ram 5.9L Cummins (1994-2002)

HPS’s Silicone Intercooler Boot Kit for Dodge Ram 5.9L Cummins (1994-2002) trucks swaps the factory intercooler boots on the 1994-2002 Ram pickup for 4-ply aramid reinforced silicone with a fluoro lined inner surface. HPS part number 57-1576 is rated to 500F and designed to hold more than 100 PSI of boost, a useful margin on a Cummins that has been turned up. Heavy duty stainless steel spring loaded T-bolt clamps come with it, and the kit suits owners whose original boots have weakened with age or blown off.

Design and Performance

These trucks are old enough that factory boots have seen decades of heat cycles, and HPS built this kit to replace parts that weaken over time. The 100 PSI design figure is far more than a stock 5.9L needs, so the owner who gains most is the one running more fuel and boost. The boots seal the charge air system but add no power, and HPS lists no gains for them.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
