V-10 Question

[joedunn26]

Help! New to forum.
I have 2 Dodge Ram 2500 pickups with each having the V-10 with automatic and 4 WD ---- a 1995 and a 1999. They are identically equipped down to the color combo.
The V-10 in the 1999 has developed a rod knock. The 1995 has significant body damage. Will the 1995 Dodge Ram V-10 engine and trans swap directly into the 1999 ?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

Are you sure its a rod? My V10 had what sounded like a rod knock and no power. Turned out it was the in tank fuel pump. Dealer said it was a rod. Took an independent truck shop to diagnose, which he did right off when describing the symptoms.

Thank you for the quick response. Yes definitely a rod knock.

Yes. If they are both 4wd and both automatic...direct swap.

The 99 is slightly mire powerful than the 95...otherwise it is the same
