Question durango wiring same as Ram ???

I am swapping a 5.7 2006 to a 2005 Dakota 3.7 set up I have all the wiring for both. What should I look for regarding issues . I have average skills for plug and play stuff. But it will need some attention for sure. Thanks in advance. The engine tranny wiring has been removed from Dakota.

Call hotwireauto.com, swaps like that are their bread and butter and they can probably make you a harness or modify your existing one

sorry...the Hemi is from a 2006 Durango...going into a 2005 Dakota.. Since this is a Ram site I thought I would see the Ram and Durango are similar. Thanks

$2000???? Seriously? That can't be right, to alter a harness for a buddy of mine with an 03 Ram so he can use the 05 PCM was quoted like $450.

Just over 2000 dollars and I told them all the wiring and computers for both trucks could be shipped to them if they needed it
. Makes no sense to me. I may call back because this is really out of line. they mainly add to wires to the injectors and flash the computers ...But they make money doing it! Must be something I am missing.
thanks ...I will keep looking!
