I ended up using a radiator for and automatic that had the trans cooler integrated and used that as my oil cooler. added about...

    JK130 | Custom TDI Diesel Parallel Hybrid Jeep Wrangler with composite camper build.

    Have you looked at the stock filter housing? Theres a check valve in there that helps keep the system primed slightly to quickly pressure the system (mostly for the head) Also you can mix and match oil pumps and gears to achieve different volumes and pressures.

    2019 Ford Ranger Taking Orders

    I was overseas years ago in Africa and saw simple diesel quad cab trucks everywhere including the "new to the US" Ranger. Fact is if you want it all , whatever your "all" is, you will for the most part have to build it yourself.

    We looked at the colorado diesel also but like its been said you caint get that driveline in a stripped down truck. But I know for a fact that a Tdi swap in an old dakota cost no more than $5100. ;) Diesel in a midsize truck is great. I dont see us driving a gas powered truck ever again.
