Welcome to the forum mate, 4.2 diesels are renowned for their super reliability and which can make it hard to find at times but just keep a look out and saved searches on Ebay, Carsales, etc and be ready to go see it at a drop of a hat.

Gday Dan, welcome to the forum mate. Theres not much that can be faulted about the 4.2 diesel. Plenty of info about to search through. I think theres even a couple of threads about the same conversion.

Welcome aboard! I tried to source a Patrol with a 4.2 for a few months and gave up. Hope you find one.
