not sure. I know the bell housing on the kit from Dustin touches the tunnel in a couple places, I think @Duiser Offroad might know that answer better.
Me either, where did you source your blues from?No the dash lights were about the first thing I did when I got it. I dont like the green

Out of curiosity why did you opt for the 343 vs the 442? I've sat both trans side by side and the 442 looks like an Allison compared to the 343.
I would love to put an NV4500 behind the 6BT, but really don't want the body lift. I suspect that the engine mounts play a large role in whether one is needed. In the new kit, you have to drop the power steering brace about an inch, which makes me think that the engine is sitting lower than in the old kit where this wasn't needed.
Haven't seen the new design, have no idea.
Does this not imply there is a new design different than the old design?
Good thing about the NV4500 is there is no trans wiring to mess with. Just a reverse light cable. Seems to me that most issues with recent diesel swaps are getting the stock transmission to work correctly but I guess you would be trading those issues with the labor of making the manual and all the clutch parts to work. I do love my NV4500 though. Also with all this waiting on Dustin to get parts I don't see the point.I am thinking I want to go with the nv4500 swap more then the auto. Does Dustin sell parts of his kit or do you have to buy the whole thing? The wiring harness, cruise and throttle linkage, and inter cooler plumbing would be a huge time saver.
