- Larger oil supply holes
- Increased oil groove width
- 2 additional oil transfer grooves along the bottom
- The increase in oil feeds a hydrodynamic wedge
- Reduces friction by allowing the rocker arm bushing area to never contact the shaft
- Increases the service life of both the rocker arm and the shafts
OEM rocker Arm Trunnions were originally designed conservatively, and in recent years, this has allowed for rocker arm and pushrod issues in applications where load or performance exceeds OEM. When the stress on the trunnion rises above what is considered a reasonable window of operation, the trunnion is not designed to support the additional load it is experiencing. Stock trunnions begin to gall themselves, as well as the rocker arm bushing surface, soon after stress surpasses those OEM levels. Within a few thousand miles, it is common for the rocker arm to seize itself to the trunnion, in effect bending the OEM pushrod, which can cause severe damage to the engine.
The heavy-duty trunnions of our Power Driven 24v Billet Tool Steel Rocker Arm Shafts 98.5-02 Cummins feature larger oil supply holes, an increased oil groove width, and 2 additional oil transfer grooves along the bottom. The increase in oil will provide more than enough to feed a hydrodynamic wedge, which is a very thin film of oil that reduces friction by allowing the rocker arm bushing area to never contact the trunnion. This increases the service life of both the rocker arm and the trunnion.
Just the improvement in design wasn’t enough—we CNC-machine our billet trunnions from premium tool-steel bar stock. After that, they are core hardened, precision ground, and nitrided. Our combination of materials, precision machining, and a heat-treatment process provides a cost-effective solution for extending the service life of your OEM rocker arm bodies.
Each set of trunnions comes with a rocker arm refinishing kit to polish the galled rocker arm bushing surface before putting your new heavy-duty billet tool-steel trunnions in the rocker arm bodies.
