The factory thermostat housing on a 1998.5-2018 Ram 2500/3500 5.9L and 6.7L Cummins is the last ugly casting in an otherwise dressed-up engine bay. The Wehrli x Fleece Performance Thermostat Housing (Manufacturer Part # WCF100157) is a direct bolt-in replacement, powder coated in your choice of color, with a -8 AN auxiliary port machined in for accessories or custom coolant routing.
Why Choose the Wehrli x Fleece Thermostat Housing?
- Direct OEM replacement – no adapters, no modification, straight swap for the factory housing.
- -8 AN O-ring auxiliary port with plug – capped from the factory, there when you want it. Useful for coolant-fed accessories or a custom routing on a built truck.
- Covers twenty model years on one part number – 1998.5 through 2018, 5.9L and 6.7L alike.
- Matches the rest of the build – same powder coat range as Wehrli's upper coolant pipes, intake kits and valve covers, so the engine bay reads as one piece.
- WCFab and Fleece Performance collaboration – two names diesel owners already know, on one part.
- Made in the USA.
Kit Includes
- Thermostat housing / coolant elbow
- -8 AN auxiliary port plug
Installation Highlights
