Early 1G "Big" rods and the 2.4L truck rods share the same part number: MB040550.

Getting the engine bolted in is about 10% of the way there.
The next 80% can go quickly with help and skill.
That last 10% takes about as long as the 90% that came before it.

I just started the last class that I need to graduate after a 2 year hiatus so of course I now find MUCH more time to be on here. This is why I hated school. It made the distractions so much more interesting.

That was from CAPS. You may want to download it and look around. I think it came up saying pre 93.5. That means all 6 bolts use this rod as far as I know.

All 6 bolt engines(4g63/64) are "big rod" engines.

How much does it cost to get rods prepared like that these days? How much for ARP rod bolts?

If these are going in a 2.4, I would spend the extra cash on some eagle rods at the least, considering the rod angle is steeper putting more stress on them.
