What is the best thing in your opinion to put a 4BT cummins into?

 

I would like to put one in a ****** jeep pickup

 

my jeep, hand it over. hehe just kidding, got one burning a hole in your garage door?

 

Naw, actually I caught the diesel bug. I want to cummins-ize something? I dont really want to buy a Pickup until I can afford to order EXACTLY want I want off the lot. I have a 93 jeep that is worth, in my opinion, 9000 dollars. I talked to my dad about me putting in a Cummins diesel and he's afraid that the it will make the Jeep lose value instead of gain. (Is this true?) So, I was trying to think of a cheap durable vehicle to transplant it in. So, does this help? I was thnking of a old ford bronco or a jeep cherokee/ Grand Cherokee?

 

1975 AMC Gremlin.

Mount the Gremlin body on a Wrangler frame that has the same width and wheelbase. Use whatever Jeep suspension and driveline pieces are required, keep the Gremlin interior.

 

MTGunNut,

I think that your bronco or cherokee idea would work. Your probably going to have few things to modify with whatever vehicle you choose.


BTW: My bad on the tread jack

This guy put one in a ranger. Or, put it in an early bronco.

 

I would love to put one in my 76 Bronco or in my wifes 06 Hummer H3.

 

1/2 Ton Ext cab Dodge gasser 4X4, just to Show Dodge what it is missing.....

 

I was thinking about this swap into a 69 Scout anyone think it would work?What trans could be used?

 

Anything smaller than a 1/2 ton would be too small for a 4bt, IMO. Check this dude out--he's got the idea--and the final product

If you put it in something like an older Dodge pickup it should be as close to a bolt-in swap as possible.

 

Ive been pondering a 5.9 in an old farm truck. Event a 4bt would be nice. Theres tons of old 40, 50, 60's fram trucks around here and they sure would be nice with a 12 valver in em.

At least thats my thought on the matter.

 

What about an old 1996 ford f150?

 

id love to shoehorn one into my 91 pathfinder
