Re: 4BT Cummins Turbo Diesel in an 05 Silverado (with pictures!)
I'm finishing up the rebuild of a wrecked Duramax truck right now and have decided there is no way to fit a Dmax intercooler in a non-HD truck without a lot of work. I've got it figured out that it could be done by dropping the frame horns 2" like you would if doing a 2" body drop then use an HD core support (which is 2" taller) so the intercooler will fit like stock. You would also want to use the HD bumper pad to which would look really cool on this little truck. I just don't think it is worth it plus the HD core supports aren't cheap.
I still have a few other options. I have two other intercoolers that I'm going to try to fit in when I have time. I can also see it may be best to do some measuring and just have one made to fit.
