No confirmation yet... It may be a difference in auto vs stick in 2001 as
well... Best thing to do is visually check for the size stamp on the BACK of
the butterfly at the dealer (and on your truck). If he hands you a 65,
(stamped on the back of the blade) then its not the right part, and you can
then get "the other one"... My dealer was clueless to the p/n difference...
I asked for a 2001 4.7 TB...I didnt even specify auto or stick, and I got a
68mm...
Hmmm
