The Industrial Injection X-Series .020 Piston Kit gives you the confidence of a matched piston set that is designed specifically for 1998.5-2002 6BT 24V engines requiring a .020 inch oversize bore. It is an excellent solution for engines that have been machined during the rebuilding process and need oversized pistons to restore proper cylinder fit. Additionally, every kit includes the rings, wrist pins, and clips needed to simplify assembly and keep your project moving forward. The low friction anti scuff skirt coating helps reduce wear while promoting smooth piston movement during everyday driving, towing, and long highway miles. This stock replacement configuration maintains factory style operation, making it a dependable choice for owners who value reliability without unnecessary modifications. From work trucks to daily drivers, this piston kit provides the quality components needed to put your Cummins back on the road with confidence. \u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003ch4\u003e Designed For Accurate Fit And Dependable Engine Performance \u003c\/h4\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003e Industrial Injection developed the X-Series .020 Piston Kit to provide a direct replacement solution for 1998.5-2002 5.9L Cummins 24V 6BT engines that require a .020 inch oversize piston. Each matched piston set is manufactured to deliver consistent fitment across all cylinders, helping support balanced engine operation after a proper rebuild. Furthermore, the included rings, wrist pins, and retaining clips eliminate the need to source essential installation components separately. The low friction anti scuff skirt coating helps minimize piston skirt wear while reducing friction against the cylinder walls throughout normal engine operation. This version retains the factory compression height, making it well suited for OEM style engine configurations that do not require additional valve clearance or specialized piston designs. Because this is an oversize piston kit, it should only be used after confirming the engine block has been machined to accept a .020 inch oversize piston. Always verify bore dimensions during the rebuilding process to ensure proper piston to cylinder clearance and long term engine reliability. \u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e Fitment: \u003c\/strong\u003e 1998.5, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002 Dodge RAM 2500\/3500 4WD 5.9L Cummins 24V \u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNotes:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDesigned for 1998.5-2002 5.9L Cummins 24V 6BT engines only.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThis listing is for the .020 inch oversize piston kit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRequires a .020 inch overbore engine block.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVerify cylinder bore size before ordering.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConfirm cylinder measurements after machine work.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaintains the factory compression height.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIncludes matched pistons, rings, wrist pins, and clips.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIntended as a direct drop-in replacement for compatible engines.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNot intended for builds requiring additional valve clearance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConsult your engine builder for modified engine applications.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e  ","brand":"Industrial Injection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54409304539420,"sku":"IIS243111","price":1163.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0738\/2279\/8108\/files\/243111_14.webp?v=1786032253","url":"https:\/\/www.alligatorperformance.com\/products\/industrial-243111-6bt-x-series-piston-kit-020-1998-5-2002-dodge-ram-2500-3500-4wd-5-9l-cummins-24v","provider":"Alligator Performance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
