 Subject: Lots of swapping
IP: Logged
Message:
Just today I was looking through a bargin trader paper...and I saw that a guy was selling a 5.9l engine/tranny/computer from a 1997 Ram. I called him up, and he said he would sell just the engine for $750. I was like holy sh!t!. Ive got lots of questions tho...Ive got a 1998 4x4 3.9 5spd. I think I have a NV3500 tranny...no idea about the transfer case...does anybody know what the stock t-case is? also a Chrysler 8.25 rear end...and on the sticker, for front axle it said "3400". thats it...anybody know what that means? I read that 360's arent drilled from the factory for manual trannies...so ill have to do that. Also, coming from a Ram...will I need a v8 dak computer...could I use the Ram computer? or what? Also...will my tranny/t-case combo be up to the task of all the extra horses coming from the 360? And as for axles...do they make IFS Dana axles? Like can I get a front Dana 35 or 44 for my truck? And for the rear...can I just drop anything in there? another Dana 44...Dana 60...something stronger...what? Like for doing solid axle swaps...lots of people use F-250 axles. Could I toss one of those in the back...and get something better for the front? And back to the engine...will that actually "fit" in my engine compartment? Will I need block hugger headers or anything? Do I need to whack the firewall or something? Is the 5.9l in the R/T's the same as in the Ram? R/T's are 2wd though...will the engine fit with my front axles? Sorry for the overload of questions...but I need to find out lots of information quickly before the engine gets snatched up. Thanks alot in advance guys...I need help :P
