Powerful, Precise, and Proven Exhaust Braking

The PacBrake C44033 PRXB Exhaust Brake Kit is the ultimate upgrade for 2004.5–2005 Dodge RAM 2500/3500 5.9L Cummins trucks equipped with the 48RE automatic transmission. Unlike standard exhaust brakes that rely solely on backpressure at high RPMs, the PRXB delivers superior braking power at cruising RPMs (1400–1800)—where you actually drive.

With its spring-controlled, pressure-regulated mechanism, the PRXB offers smooth, controlled deceleration and enhanced safety during towing or downhill braking. When deactivated, the exhaust flow is fully open—so it won't impact performance or fuel economy.

Built for reliability, the unit features precision-machined surfaces, eliminating the need for gaskets, and a non-contacting butterfly valve that prevents sticking or seizing. The Arcor-treated internals enhance wear resistance, corrosion protection, and overall lifespan, even in extreme diesel operating conditions.

This complete kit comes with everything needed for installation, including a high-output air compressor, coiled air line, controller, and fittings—making it ideal for applications with or without an existing onboard air system.
