I'm trying to find the rubber elbow that goes on the top of the vacuum pump on an '02. The dealer doesn't have a clue about it or how to find it and no Cummins dealer close by. Any ideas where to get one?

Well, just went page by page on both my 02 and my 97 parts manual, can't find a thing...............

Not sure what the heck to do, it won't be a Cummins part, Dodge only.

Perhaps someone who works in a parts department or who has purchased one will chime in, i know I would like to have a spare laying around.

Dodge dealer was friendly and tried to be helpful but his books didn't show it at all. Closest he could get was a vacuum line assembly that was $109 and didn't look anything like mine.

If we're talking about the same 90* elbow on the main vacuum line..... Mine was so bad it looked like foam rubber. Yea, it leaked too. Touching it would get black crap all over my fingers. And after really looking at it, I didn't understand why there needed to be an elbow there at all. I just went to the auto parts store, replaced it with a plastic T and put it all back together. My vacuum exhaust brake uses another vacuum line which is the reason I needed the T fitting.

I'll try that tomorrow. Thanks.
