Asked by Sammantha Aug 10, 2018 at 04:15 PM about the 2005 Dodge RAM 3500

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My husband has a 2005 Dodge Ram 3500 cummins, Is it possible to put the engine from a 2000 Dodge into his 2005? They both are the 5.9L and a 24 Valve. The block in the 2005 cracked.

Possibly. I would talk to a diesel specialist to see what changes were made. Ask them about emissions compliance with the old engine.

Just so you know the 53 engine from 1999 to 2001 was known for having the block crack.
