diesel motor swap

if your trucks a 1/2 ton forget it, motors weighs too much, second you are either gonna need the allison automatic or the 6 spped manual, id go with the 6 speed, they will fit cause gm has several that are test mules.

this for the trail rig you got? that would be pretty sweet... but alot of money for a trail rig (unless your getting a killer deal on the engine) also, you upgraded your axles to 1tons anyway didnt you? only thing I would be worried about is the frame, as you and I both know how much that flexs :rotfl: , I would box the frame if you drop in a D-max, and you should be fine.

Yes this would be for my trail rig. I did upgrade to 1 ton axels. I am hoping I could get this motor for a killer deal. Ya it did kinda flex a little on that last hill side didnt it! :eyecrazy: So if I boxed the frame you think I would be ok? Or is this kinda a problem waiting to happen? Well the truck is still ready to go wheeling this winter. So maybe I can roll it this time alpha.

BUT... he is not draggin down the track, nor is he hauling 10k lbs behind it, its all slow moving trail ridding and stuff like that... i think the tranny would hold up for a while, but i would put some money aside to build up somthing to replace it when it DOES die.

advanced adapters might have something for you? i would ceeck them out.

d-max feeding a 700r4, should getcha outta your driveway, a built turbo 400 would be the best value but a 6 speed would be the bees knees :bigthumb:

My dad never hauled crap with are 6.2 and it ate trannys lol
