Product Details
Descending grades with trailers can be hazardous and tricky situations, resulting in over heated service and trailer brakes, that leads to brake fade, excessive wear, and costly unwarranted repairs. BD Engine brake has been the industries time proven VARIABLE REGULATING BACK-PRESSURE EXHAUST BRAKE.Controlled by a lighted On/Off toggle switch or optional stick-mounted rocker switch for manual transmissions, the BD brake communicates with the engines electronic idle verification board for quick engagement. Where it mounts: Most vehicle applications will either have BDs turbo-mount design which bolts in place of the factory elbow between the turbo and the exhaust system or the inline design mounts in the exhaust system between the engine and muffler/DPF/cat. The BD Brakes rugged cast-iron housing incorporates BDs exclusive AlumiBronze bushing and positive sealing piston ring, no blind holes for carbon and rust to form, and miles of leak free retarding. Brake valve is actuated by an air cylinder (newer models) or a powerful, three- in. vacuum cylinder (earlier models). The durable air compressor included in later model kits can even be used for other applications, such as air horns, air bags even air-ride fifth wheel hitches –it is that tough. Automatic-equipped trucks prior to 2006 require BDs programmable AutoLoc and PressureLoc kits to electronically control torque converter clutch engagement. This addition effectively reduces slippage, resulting in peak retarding performance as well as lower transmission temperatures. All BD Brake kits come complete with the brake, air compressor (where applicable), mounting hardware, port to monitor the brakes retarding performance, complete instructions and most models come with EGT port.
Exhaust Brake - 2003-2005 Dodge Air/Remote 4in
It has been almost 30 years since we started shipping our first exhaust brakes. With that many hill and mountain roads experienced, we used the knowledge gained to continue to deliver the best designed exhaust brake for your application. Incorporating BD''s exclusive Variable Orifice Technology, BD''s solid, offset butterfly, spring loaded cylinder and pressure regulation provides up to 150 retarding horsepower throughout the engine''s RPM range - not just at high rpm like some designs that use holes or additional parts and claim it as a better idea. A range of rugged, cast-iron housings for Dodge, Ford, Chevy and motor home applications that incorporate BD''s exclusive alumibronze bushing, piston ring-seals and stainless steel butterfly shaft has proven to stand-up under the harsh, high heat conditions of the exhaust environment. BD''s butterfly valve and rotating shaft are made of stainless steel to resist corrosion. An air compressor is included in most kits for newer pick-up trucks.

As we all know, family owned businesses do not always succeed but that is not the case with BD Diesel Performance. Since its inception in 1972 as Valley Fuel Injection Ltd as well as when it became recognized under the name BD in 1989 it has been a family owned and operated company that is proud of its product and its success and the introduction of the first brake for Diesel pick-up trucks in 1989 established BD Diesel as a recognized and reputable name in the industry. The 65,000 square foot facility and a complement of over 130 employees affords BD Diesel Performance the opportunity of designing and producing impressive products for both diesel and gas applications.
The extensive array of products available from BD include things like the BD turbocharger that is hand crafted to meet even the most demanding customers needs. The use of precision lathes, milling equipment, honing machines and inspection CMMs guarantee that your product will surpass OEMs specifications. Of course, the BD exhaust brakes are a force to be reckoned with since their resilient cast-iron bodies have an offset stainless steel butterfly that builds peak at an extensive pace. The Positive Air Shutdown assures you that emergency engine shutdown is forthcoming and the turbine diverter valve will improve your turbocharger response time if you have a turbo without Variable Geometry regulation.
BD has a dedicated and experienced team in their Transmission and Torque Convertor Department whose goals are to meet the challenge of transferring all the torque from your diesel engine to your drive wheels while at the same time not compromising shift quality and causing as little noise, vibration and harshness as possible. And since BD is cognizant of the need to keep pace with the times they have a dedicated and impressive electronic department to meet your needs in that area.
