Default New to forum, not diesel

Hello, as the subject states, I'm new to this forum, but not to diesels. From Minnesota, and currently own three diesel vehicles:

2006 VW Jetta TDI
1994 Chevrolet K3500 - Cummins 6BT Swap
1997 Jeep Cherokee - Cummins A2300T Swap (in progress, had the diesel in a Wrangler until last month, swapping from the wrangler to the Cherokee at the moment)

Here is the location of my current build thread for the Cherokee: Cummins Cherokee Swap

Picture of VW before and after (purchased as a wreck, a good friend fixed it up good!):






Picture of the K3500 (an older picture, but still a picture):


Picture of the Cherokee Cummins Swap in progress:

PM away.

The truck has a 1997 Cummins 12v, with p-pump injection pump.
NV4500 transmission
BW4401 transfer case

Still need to figure out the cruise control someday, and am running the dodge alternator, so my tach doesn't work... Otherwise it runs like a champ! Has 5" exhaust from the downpipe back. Installing stacks has crossed my mind, but likely won't happen. Currently there is also an auxiliary fuel tank in the front of the bed, adding an additional 30 some gallons.

The swap uses engine mounts from AutoWorld

that truck is perfect just like it is. you should post up some videos id like to hear that thing run. thats a great looking truck.. i have future ideas coming to me now thanks to you! we had one of those old bodied chevys it was a 94 also, but 1500 with a 350. loved the truck but the engine blew up at 385k and wasnt worth fixing.. truck was worked like a mule. miss it every day! id like to find one of these same bed and cab configuration.. but after looking ive realized you cant hardly find duallys with the crew cab
