Finally! I've stalled on it for almost a year, and I just need to get it done. Pieces of it are up now, and I plan to have the rest up in the next few hours. Feel free to send me comments about it (good, bad, or ugly) but they should probably be off-list, since I don't need to provoke arguments about my website on the diesel list. Although, it does seem that the flame-war types have all left, or else mellowed out, which is nice. I should have the rest up by tonight. www.silverdollarsolutions.com Should I put a picture of Jeeves (my 300SDL) on the "About" page, just to make a pro-Diesel-Benz statement? 8^) Jason ____________________________________________________________ Looking for insurance?

I wouldn't use the Jeep AT, the 42re is junk... some of the TDI conversion sites might have info on what to mate a mercedes Diesel to... let me know what you find out. john ----- - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Snohomish, Washington -o|||||o- where Jeeps don't rust, they mold http://AMSOIL.com/redirect.cgi?zo=283461 http://creationwiki.org http://johnmeister.com http://wagoneers.com http://fotomeister.us - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On Fri, 20 Mar 2009, Denis Limanov wrote: # Hi John, # browsing the net I came across your posts on wagoneers.com back from 05. # # http://66.218.69.11/search/cache?ei=UTF-8&p=300sd+final+gear&fr=yfp-t-501&u=w ww.wagoneers.com/XJ/digests/XJ-2000/xj-2032.txt&w=300sd+final+gear+gears&d=cN R-GJ2uSZ77&icp=1&.intl=us # # # It seems like I have exacly the same questions that you did at that time - "To Diesel an XJ (ZJ in my case) or not... or just repair the '79 300SD and sell it or just part it out? # Time... money... feasibility." # # I have a 79 300SD that served me well for long and a 93 Grand Cherokee. The MB is rusting out and everything seems to go, besides the engine. The 4wd Jeep - - has over 200k on it, problems with tranny, engine ..., the body is OK. The question is do I get rid of Jeep and fix-up Mercedes (I have done it ones about 8 years ago - used it daily since then) - over 2500 just for body work +++++, or do a swap and enjoy the diesel Jeep. # # Did you do your conversion?
