I would steer WAY away from the 2.8 liter diesel in the Liberty. Mercedes makes it. Everything Mercedes is overpriced, hard to get, and harder to work on. Not near enough power anyway.

The 4BT modded would be a decent engine. They are found in a lot of the box delivery vans like Wonder Bread, Frito Lay, the older ones like that. Maybe even old UPS vans? Its a 5.9 cummins with two cylinders lopped off. They even sound very similar to the 5.9 cummins.
