    Body Lift kits wont fit diesel models?

    Well if the only problem is a little bit of contact with the head that seems easily fixable(may require a hammer). The one thing I was not a fan of with the lift kit I did on my old danger ranger was the bolt provided were only grade 5. I would have felt a little better with a set of 8's.

    Body Lift kits wont fit diesel models?

    So I have looked for and found quite a few body lift kits for our trucks. However, they all seem to say that they will not work with models with diesel engines. I can't really think of a valid reason for this other than possible the radiator size. I have done lift kits on gas vehicles before...

    IDI Rebuild

    I do believe you would need the typical parts ie flywheel and clutch pack. Most vehicles are stamped the same so it should at the least have the areas ready to be cut out for all the clutch equipment required. I dont know if all set ups have them but my ZF5 has a hydraulic clutch which would...

    I would be inclined to agree with you. Although the heater would just prevent the gellin of the fuel in the filter housing and do nothing for the fuel in the lines. I will keep mine in working order just on the off chance Oklahoma gets hit with another record setting blizzard.
