Eric dodge and chrysler vehicles are total junk man. I was a mechanic at
chrysler,despite our attempts speaking to chrysler engineers, they refused
to improve the thickness of wiring,improve electrical connectors, make
repairs more easier,re-design parts, and honor a lot of warranty claims.
Just changing rims with aftermarket could easily void your factory
warranty, as it can alter your final drive ratio they say.
After seeing so many brand new low mileage cars come to me with major tear
downs, I had to quit.Warranty work labor is pure slavery.I even had 9 hour
jobs pay 4.0 under warranty. I really wish this company would change, and
feel bad for the customers with their products.

For engine lifting hooks on a 3.7, I cannibalized the metal portion of some
spark plugs by smashing off the porcelain with a hammer, welded a long bolt
to it with a large washer on the other end of the bolt, and then you have
an engine lifting hook that threads into spark plug holes. The bolts will
bend unless you lift directly up on both of them, but they will bend until
they make contact with what would be the “lower intake manifold” (which is
part of the head) and it seems quite robust as a result. I don’t see why
it will not work on a 4.7.

Seat belts are plenty strong to do the job, too. They are incredibly
strong.

Unless clearance at the cowl prevents it, remove the intake manifold to get
to the top bell housing bolts. It is easy to remove and the gaskets are
re-usable…. most of the time.

Where do you buy your parts from?

matthew3237 says:

Emergency question, where are the mounting bolt locations to attach an
engine hoist to a v6 3.7L?

brandon gladney says:

is it possible to replace the 4.7 with a 5.9 considering you have to have
ecu changes

Glendale Watkins says:

I’ve taken the entire cab off the chassis to remove engines that have very
limited clearance at the cowl. Especially on the 4X4 models. There is too
little clearance for tools and hands at the firewall and bell housing, not
to mention the exhaust pipes. Certainly enjoyed watching your video.

you are a beast

Anthony Starfield says:

Wow, a cliff hanger! The engine has seized, what to do?

Even if the salvage yard gives you a new engine, it still sucks that you
went so far with installing the thing. Now you have to pull the engine out
and rumble over the great concrete divide. That sucks like a vacuum cleaner.

What can I say, Eric? I have a gift for noticing the obvious.

Devon Degase says:

Dodge sucks anŷwaŷs

Robert Cowan says:

I had a Jeep Commander with the 4.7. Shit engine!

turbolq4 says:

4.7 is absolute garbage. Burn more oil than gas and are making rod noises
at 90,000 miles.

makg2010 says:

Alejandro rodriguez says:
