3.3 into 2.5, does it go and how easy?

[davy t maxx]

hi, was wondering how easy it is to drop the 3.3 in the 2.5? does it need engine mounts changed and what are the linkages like? my maxx has had some very serious upgrades but still been running the trx2.5, on my fifth now and hard to get a hold of so it's time to bite the bullet and go bigger capacity. diffs,gearbox and driveshafts are all upgraded.

it's a direct drop in. I just did the same thing.

same mount as 2.5 and clutch and linkage are the same?

 

[Lessen]

yes sir
