Engineered For Extreme Loads And Structural Integrity

The Industrial PDM-06024 14mm Gorilla Girdle is a purpose-built bottom-end reinforcement solution for 1994–2002 Dodge RAM 2500 and 3500 trucks with 5.9L Cummins 12-valve or 24-valve engines. This girdle system includes a structural plate that ties all main caps together, significantly reducing cap walk and block distortion under elevated RPM and boost pressure. It comes with ARP XL 14mm main studs made from A1 material, capable of handling torque values up to 150 ft-lbs, ideal for engines producing extreme cylinder pressures. The larger diameter studs increase thread engagement and surface contact, improving main bearing alignment and extending crankshaft longevity. Designed to integrate cleanly into the block with precise clearances, the girdle enhances rigidity without interfering with rotating assembly components. This setup is critical in competitive environments such as drag racing, sled pulling, and high-output daily drivers. If long-term durability and precision are your priorities, this upgrade offers a robust solution for bottom-end strength in high-stress diesel builds.
