I'm looking for any advice and direction for a an idea I have to convert a LN106 Hilux with the 2.8 diesel or maybe even a petrol over to a 3.9 Isuzu diesel.
What we are hoping to end up with is a good condition, live axle, single cab, Hilux with a turboed 4cyl 3.9 Isuzu which should give enough power and torque when needed.
We are trying to set-up for the nomad thing and want to tow a rig like this around with us. If we can achieve this, I think we would have a capable, versatile vehicle with parts not too hard to get.
So any thoughts or direction would be appreciated.
Cheers

Hilux motor conversion to Isuzu
I thought about buying a Hummer
But I figured I just buy a big gold chain
And hang it around my Patrol instead
That way I still have a real 4x4
And still get people to "Look at Me"

Hi dani4JB1T
Thank you, I couldn't find anything like this. This has at least given me hope that it can be done but as with all things mechanical, it's the cost. It's looking positive still atm.
