Carrying on with this good foundation, Overland Diesel shifted its focus to building diesel conversion kits for the early Jeep product line.
At least two for the jeeps on the Alaska Or Rust adventure have been repowered with diesel engines (Daniel Buck and Peter Brouwer). Contact Overland today and get your Diesel Swap started!

Allied Jeep offers enthusiasts an alternative – brand new parts manufactured to original specification, such as L-134 engine blocks, but produced with more exacting standards and tolerances now possible given advances in manufacturing technologies and techniques over the past 60 years.
