Cheers,  I'll have a good look at that site,  a friend was asking about the probability of a conversion.  i was thinking maybe a 2.8 daihatsu. or nissan,  i found the daihatsu a good strong reliable engine,  and the 4liter nissan out of the patrol none turbo very strong.......cya

I believe Chrysler fitted diesel engines to Cherokees occasionally.

yeh they did but somehow they chose the wrong suplier. if it fails go buy a 4ltr it works out cheaper
