For Sale1996 Dodge Avenger
FROM WIKIPEDIA: The first generation Dodge Avenger was a 2-door coupe produced from 1995 to 2000, replacing the Dodge Daytona and the Mitsubishi-based Dodge Stealth (which was discontinued in 1996). The Avenger, along with the similar Chrysler Sebring coupe, were built by Diamond Star Motors (DSM), a joint venture between Chrysler Corporation and Mitsubishi Motors, on the Mitsubishi Galant (FJDS22) platform. This joint venture between the two ended in 1995. Avengers and Sebring coupes built from 1995 to 1996 both have DSM markings in their engine compartments. The Avenger had a 103 in (2.62 m) wheelbase and used either a 2.0 L I4 (the Chrysler 420A) or a Mitsubishi-designed 2.5 L V6. The 4-cylinder was coupled to either a five-speed manual transmission, shared with the Mitsubishi Eclipse and Eagle Talon, or a 4-speed automatic. The V6 was only available with the A604 transmission, and cannot be swapped out easily due to a lack of transmissions that can fit around the front axle. The easiest way to swap out the automatic transmission on this car is an entire drivetrain swap. The second generation Mitsubishi Eclipse (95-99) was basically a "shorter" version of the Avenger, and at least 80% of the parts can be used on either vehicle. The main exceptions are the windows, exterior lighting, hood, trunklid, and bumpers. One could swap an Avenger front end to an Eclipse and vice-versa, by swapping the fenders, hood, upper and lower radiator supports, and so on. Some drivetrain components are universal, as are with most interior, and almost all the suspension components. |
