I think I already know the answer but I just want to make sure.
I'm looking at a strut tower bar on eBay and the description says it fits 99 - 05 2.4L but it it doesn't say anything about the 3400.
My question is will it work? I don't think the engine size matters but I just want to double check.
Thanks

The 3400 is taller at the intake manifold than the 4-cyl, and it extends deeper back into the engine bay.

So it will prolly interfere with the bar crossing the engine bay.

Alternator and PS pump are mounted in different locations on the V6 than on the 4, so they may also be in the way.

Ok well I'm glad I double checked. Thanks

what i found was the 2005 with a 3400 was that the alt.wiring interfered with the bar . a special one was designed for this last year . so the earlier modeld did not require this special bar . should be a piece of cake to put on
