What years and size interchange
1 Answer
it's not the years made, it's the engine types. 4WD have an extra timing chain than the 2WD. There's also multi-fuel variants. It's best to match same-to-same, and ALSO take the computer controls that are specifically programmed for that engine type. IF you put a V6 into something with a 4 cylinder, CHECK THE TRANSMISSION. They may bolt up the same, but the trans. bolted to a 4 banger may not hold up to a V6's torque
