Engine swap

[segur80]

Ok, I'm getting a 4.7 from an 04 Dakota, vin code n. I'm putting this into an 03 ram 1500, vin code n. Looking for guidance on what parts I need to purchase, ie gaskets, seals, ect. I'm pretty sure I have to switch the oil pan, motor mounts, and accessory brackets, just not sure if there is anything else. Any help is appreciated.

You can definitely recuperate what you have on the old engine.

Motor mounts, pan, etc...

The Pan Gasket is the same on both engines, sensors should be placed in the same positions so the Harness from the RAM will be good.

Where it may hit the fan is in regards to the PCM. depending on if the donor is a JTEC or NGC PCM, these are not interchangeable so it should be the same as the receiver truck.

Hope this helps.
