Where the Ram 3500 turbocharger is listed
We found priced Ram 3500 turbocharger listings at 153 salvage yards across 32 states. Texas supplies the most, with 119 listings (20% of the total) from 33 yards.

Market analysis
How much does a used Ram 3500 turbocharger cost?
Asking prices for a used Ram 3500 turbocharger are unusually spread out: the top listing asks about 7 times what the cheapest does, so which unit you pick matters more than the median.
Fitment variant moves the price more than most buyers expect. The most affordable variant we track, (6.7L), Pickup, lists at a $1,200 median, while (6.7L), Chassis Cab commands $1,825, a 52% gap inside the same part category. Confirm which variant your VIN requires before comparing quotes.
Model year matters too: 2017 units carry the lowest median at $1,038, while 2025 tops the table at $1,521. Parts from 2013–2018 are interchangeable, so if the 2017 fits your vehicle, it offers the best value across 6 compatible years.
Against comparable vehicles, the Ram 3500 sits 211% above the Mercedes S Class ($450), 187% above the Mercedes E Class ($487), and 100% above the Mercedes GLE Class ($700) for the same part. The “similar vehicles” cards below open each comparison guide.
Buying a used turbocharger: what to check
- Check shaft play. Any detectable radial movement means the bearing is worn.
- Ask for donor mileage and oil-change history if available; oil starvation kills turbos.
- Inspect the compressor wheel for chipped blades from debris ingestion.
- Budget for new oil feed and return lines. Reusing clogged lines destroys replacement turbos.
