Hi all. I have a 2002 liberty with the 3.7l that suffered a catastrophic rocker arm drop which bashed around the cylinder head.

I know the 2006 liberty motor is similar but the crank and cam gears are not interchangeable.

Does anyone know if just the cylinder heads can be swapped from an 06 to an 02? Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the forums.
I really do not know how interchangeable they are. Probably a good question for an engine shop.
If it was only one rocker, one side, you might consider having the cylinder head re-built?

I think its busted up pretty good. Perhaps a good welder could punch in enough to build up that wall again but I hear welding cast aluminum is rough.
