4x4 Diesel, 4-door 5-speed Ranger... US safety laws suck!

Looking for a pull-out for a diesel swap and I keep running over all kinds of stuff like this...

Argh! That is like the coolest ranger ever! A diesel from that would probably just swap right into a 98 + ranger

I doubt "swap right in" would be the words I'd use... At least you know it would fit!! Wish I could get the whole truck!

Well I am assuming the frames and axle setup ect would be the same, I would assume you swap the motor and trans and computer and it would bolt into the same spots. But IDK, Either way it would be a sweet set up.

I so want that. But I will take it in a 2001 or newer model.

Yes, the US EPA laws suck. I mean come on, who wouldn't want a 25mpg or better compact truck. And in a true 4-door.
