It's obviously been done many times, but not by me. I honestly waffled on buying a new truck , vs repairing this one. Prices of new trucks like my 2012 sport push the mid $80's here in Canada, with leather etc. I've had this truck for 3 years and 150,000 km, long enough to know it well, and trust it. It was 3M wrapped from new, and also undercoated, so it has almost no rust. I figured why not try something that keeps me happy for another 250,000 km?
Finding a good deal on a brand new Mopar long block 6.4l sealed the deal, and I started assembling parts for the swap. I did a lot of research on what I thought might be needed, and had most things ready for when my truck came out of the body shop (I had some hail fixed from a big storm here this summer).
This was probably about half the parts I ended up using, give or take.
