Which 1991 Dodge models are easiest to source parts for?
Full-size and popular utility models (like the Ram/B-series van, Caravan/Grand Caravan, and Dakota) tend to have the best aftermarket support and salvage availability, so they’re generally easier and cheaper to maintain; rarer coupes and performance trims can require more hunting or specialist suppliers.
How can I quickly identify the engine and trim of a 1991 Dodge?
Check the VIN plate (door jamb or dash), engine stamping, and original build sheet if available; online VIN decoders and factory manuals will translate codes to engine displacement and trim levels, and classifieds/parts diagrams help match specific components.
