Question Best Plugs & Wires ??

I have a 2002 Durango SXT 4.7 engine 2WD - what are the recommended and/or best plugs/wires to use?

OEM plugs. Those engines hate anything but copper core. Wires? Something I've found that more expense does not equate to more anything else. I just buy the basic wire sets. Not too cheap, not too expensive.

Regular copper core plugs work best, and your 4.7 doesn't have plug wires, it's coil on plug.

+1 Go buy a set of cheap Champion Copper OEM plugs, gap at .040 and install. There is no wires on your engine, it has an individual coil over each of the plugs. You need Copper plugs because the head is aluminum and the block is cast.

Thank you so much! I did a little more research and discovered exactly what you said. I bought those exact plugs last night and tune-up is being done this morning
Thanks again for the info. :-)
