can i take the 360 magnum, pcm, tranny all the electrical goodies out of a 94 dodge ram 2500 and mount them in my 87 dodge ramcharger?


*note i also posted this in the dodge ram 2nd gen forum

 

yes, but it's not gonna be quite as simple as plunking it in there. For starters, the engine mounts are totally different from LA to magnum. Gonna require cutting and welding. But the biggest hurdle is the transfer case; It drops on the wrong side. I honestly can't tell you if the NP208 in a RC will bolt up to a 45RH or NV4500 without an adapter. Or you're gonna need a Ford dana 44, which will have to have spring perches added (easier than modifying a 94-02 Dodge 44 to accept leaf springs).

Basically, it's totally doable, but not a project for the novice unless you're infinitely patient and have friends with fabrication and modification experience.
