Radiator, motor mounts, complete dash and wiring harness, transmission (gas transmission do not have the same bolt patern on the bell housing) and plus since you have a 4x4, you'd have to find a 4x4 tranny cause a 2wd tranny has a different tailshaft.

For the "Wait To Start" light and "Water in Fuel" light and to be able to fit the wiring in it.

It can probably be done using a gas dash, but i've heard it's easier getting a diesel dash.
