My 2007 Ram just crossed 300,000 miles and I am getting myself ready for the day that I will need to put another engine in the truck. It is a 2wd shortbed, 2 door cab. I like the truck and I figure that a low mile 5.7 from a wreck may be an option.
My question is....Are there any unusual procedures to these engine swaps compared to older cars and trucks? I know that with some electrical stuff, a "reflash" is needed just to get it to run. I read from a used car dealer that claimed he had some late model Dodge that required a reflash after a battery change. That is a pisser!
I would plan to reuse my own electrical wiring.
