What year dodge rams computers fit a 1995 dodge ram(from what year to what year). We have a 1995 dodge ram and need a computer for it (pcm) and would like to know is there any other year truck that the computer will fit besides 94-95. Thank you kindly. We are looking in junk yards for a computer because we don't have the money to buy brand new

Yu have to get a computer that is the same for your engine size, transmission etc. It also has to have the same plug ins as these can change from year to year. Check with autoparts stores as they have recondidiotned ones and not as exspensive as new. The junkyard one may not work either or give you someother problem. They may be the same price as a reconditioned one as well.
