Engineered For Precision With Every Cylinder Drop The ARP 900-0400 ring compressor is a high-performance engine tool designed to streamline piston installation in 4.040-inch bore engines. Specifically tailored for 1989–2007 Dodge RAM 2500 and 3500 trucks running the 5.9L Cummins, it’s CNC-machined from high-strength 6061-T6 billet aluminum. This compressor features a true-radius taper, which aligns perfectly with the cylinder wall to compress piston rings evenly and avoid snagging or distortion during installation. A key detail is the internal relief at the base, which provides clearance for wire O-rings, something conventional tapered sleeves often overlook. The outer surface is treated with Type 3 hard anodizing, increasing its resistance to wear and extending its service life through multiple engine builds. Each tool is marked with large, easy-to-read size engravings to eliminate guesswork during fast-paced assembly. Its professional-grade build quality and smart design have made it a go-to among engine builders who value speed, precision, and long-term durability.
