Hey guys, does anyone know if a j35a5 from an mdx will bolt up to our trannies? J35a8s are rare where i am.

 

Where are you?

 

Alberta canada, theres more wrecked mdxs here and barely any RLs. Few on the road too

 

I wish I had the answer to your question.

 

Just on my research of people swapping j35s into accords and tls, they cant use the rl engine or the 04-06 mdx engine because its a different bell housing pattern so im assuming they share the same pattern. Also people have swapped the RL engine into ridgelines which gives me more hope that it should fit as the ridgelines drivetrain is similar to the mdx and pilot

 

Search car-part.com.

I found one out of a 07' RL with 112,000 KM in Alberta. Doesn't say a price though. Here's the place: ​​​​​​​Black Gold Import Auto Parts LTD. Can-AB(Nisku)
