Even so, if there was a kit for it, there would still need to be a lot of fabrication involved since everyone wants different features, and with one change it forces another change, and so forth. I am doing a 4 cyl diesel swap in a Carryall right now, and even with all of the help of Paul and the other folks that have gone down this road, the difference in dimensions on my motor and transmission, as well as axle location etc is forcing me to do things quite a bit different. Desoto is exactly correct, just too many variables. Powerwagonadvertiser.com is also another good source for diesel conversion information. Charles seems to post over there quite a bit and I know he is one of the transmission gurus as well.
