I have the manuals and I could figure the whole thing out if I had too, but if someone has already done it and has the information it could save alot of time. Thanks for your input.

Hi Brent welcome to The Diesel Page!!

Since you are a newbie why not tell us about your troubles and see if we can help you with the DS-4 first before you go through all the hassel and head aches of converting to an DB-2. DB-2 have shorter usefull life I have been told. I have over 175,00 miles on my current DS-4 pump. Is that good life? I think so. Now I'm not saying there are not some problems,but many people have tried different fixes with mixed results. Tell us your trucks story!
