89 MJ Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 From PMs with the owner: Quote I am in Phoenix, Az. I have some pictures and can put them together and email them to you. As mentioned, I have receipts for $6000.00 for parts and work done to the truck. I pulled the engine and went through it but couldn't find piston/liner kit. Now I have a complete set along with a second engine ready to be reassembled. Both injection pumps have been serviced. Trans was rebuilt, fresh clutch/flywheel. all new suspension bushings, custom Koni adjustable shocks up front. rebuilt steering box, etc.. oil lines on engine to cooler have been switched over to JIC stainless steel lines as factory fittings were all British wit-worth . All engine sheet metal has been power coated, new a/c compressor. A/c hoses not connected. Exhaust manifold has been repaired and furnace stress relieved and ceramic powder coated inside and out to prevent any heat damage in the future. truck is running but has excessive blow by if run at highway speeds. Basically, all mechanical/electrical work is done, instrument cluster has been gone through, new turn signal switch etc. Had an aluminum fan shroud made, new fan /spacer fit. fresh pwr steering pump/hoses Brakes are new, clutch master cyl & slave rebuilt. So, definitely a project to be finished up. Have a complete set of factory service manuals, extra new unused turbo and much more. Best come look at the truck if this is something you are interested in. Very rare to find one of these completely rust free. Needs fresh interior/headliner/carpeting. If I can't sell it and at least get money already spent an the parts, I will keep it with hopes of finding someone to install pistons/liners.

Someone at my job had a new Rubicon diesel. I didn't know they were putting them in new jeeps. I wanna get my hands on the new twin turbo 510hp inline 6. That's my dream swap.

I have a ram 1500 with one. 3.0 v6 turbo diesel pushing out over 400 ft lbs of torque. I like the little engine but vm motori made them complicated.

Plus being a little 2.1L not a lot of displacement to get power from Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
