I totaled my truck last night. I picked up a 1990 short cab 3/4 4x4 4sp with a 360 for 800. Its in good shape. I have a 92 w250 4x4 ext cab and the motor trans t case and diffs are good. Is this swap possible????? What issues am i gonna run into. Any help is greatly appricated.

It's all going to pretty much bolt together. Use the whole driveline and suspension out of your '92, the gasser stuff won't stand up and it's geared wrong anyhow. If the core support on your '92 is trashed, installing the intercooler and radiator will take some fab work, and of course you are going to need a custom rear driveshaft. The wiring will be as simple or as complex as you want, depends on whether or not you want it to work factory. You can swap the whole diesel harness, that is how I would do it. Or you can just hook the gasser coil wire to the shutoff solenoid and fire 'er up.

It will be a cool little truck when you are done though.
