Hello, all,
I continue to struggle with my 89 4R, which runs and shuts off.
Got offered a 3.4 to replace original 3.0, somethin I would eventually do but opportunity knocks.
Question. Donor is a 2002 4R, with the 3.4.
Mine, of course, is the 3.0, 5 speed. Although I have read as much as I can find about the swap here and else where, does anyone know if this is a doable swap? Will it bolt to my tranny? ANy major problems about I should know?
Thanks for all your input
Alex

For you most likely not!! It all depends on your mechanical aptitude and your research capability .

3.0 to 3.4 swap
THanks for the replies.
Yes. I did read the section on 3.4 swap, including this you included. I guess formulating the question better would have been a plus.
I know that 3.0, 95-2004 are comparable, but what I don't know is if all 3.4 are "created equal" or there are limitations when attempting to swap. The articles I have read do not make a specific reference and most swaps do not include anything in the 2000's...at least, I have yet to see one. Of course, I am new to this forum so forgive my ignorance. Thanks

sometime in the 2000's they stopped drilling the block for a dipstick. That and electronics will be the biggest difference. As long as you get a complete donor with all matching components you're set. Most people take the opportunity to freshen up the donor motor while its out.
