Diesel TJ?
 

Anyone hear or know of someone that has successfully put a diesel engine
(cummins or otherwise) in a TJ?

I wish I had seen it myself... I was told at a recent 4x4 show here there
was a TJ with a cummins in it. Can't remember the size. To make it fit he
had to stretch the frame a foot and heavily modify the hood/front end. I'll
ask around for some photos and see if anyone knows who it was.

I ran into a guy near Alpine, Texas who had a 2002 Wrangler with a Volvo
diesel. Looked like a neat installation, but I suspect the heavier
engine added a few pounds to the front axle load.

I've been thinking about it myself. Then again, I may just wait and see
what the next generation "TJ" looks like and what the engine options
will be.
