Is a 2014 3.6 engine direct swap into a 2012 3.6?

[Heff733]

Does anyone know if a 3.6 engine out of a 2014 jk will bolt directly into my 2012 jku with a 3.6? All the junk yards are saying only 12-13 work. Does anyone know what's diffrent or if it will work? Thanks

I see no reason whatsoever it won't work. Nothing changed as far as I know. Same engine, same transmissions, etc. Often times those junkyards are wrong.

One may have to search the donor engine for all of the sensor locations just to verify that both engines are a match.
