I owned and restored a 1980 Scout with the factory optioned SD33T diesel engine. Dana 44 axels, Dana 300 transfer, 4 speed manual.

A more robust driveline you can't build.

The electrical systems are archaic. They were 3 decades behind the industry in that regard.

A well restored Scout will twist peoples heads right off as you drive by.


I'll find a picture and see if that helps you make the decision.
