Anyone come across a kit containing everything you need to swap a cummins 4bt engine into one of these trucks?

my lease is up on my 2015 ecoboost f150 and just looking around theres a few really nice trucks 04 to 08 with blown engines in the 1000 to 2000$ price range.

if I could find a kit with everything I need I'd buy it and do the swap but so far I can only find kits for older trucks, and I dont wanna go that way just because I cant find any for cheap that are in good condition.

 

Also this won't be a race machine or anything, just a daily driver. I dont plan on adding much power or anything fancy just getting a decent daily driver on the road relatively quick which is why I'm looking for a kit with everything as opposed to piecing stuff together and fabricating stuff.
I have a fair amount of experience with wiring and mechanics but I havent muddled much with newer f150s.
years ago I was going to swap a dt360 into a 2008 f250 but had to bail on that cause divorce lol.

hopefully i can pull this off and avoid buying or leasing something brand new, or buying a truck with a pile of miles on it already

 

mosts economical would be a 2004-2008 with a 5.4 V8 ...... motor problem would be the cam/ chains/ phasers ...... just buy a new motor with UPGRADES and stick that in ...... same motor, 5.4

 

I have been looking at that option also. Just figured if theres a 4bt kit and it's going to cost a little more it might be worth the trouble and expense.

 

There is no kit for any cummins swap that is complete. To do a 4BT swap in a F150 would be around 7k easily. I have spent 8k doing my 6BT swap and the money goes quick.

 

yes... and you have to know what you are going to use for a transmission... older transmissions / housings bolt up better, that's why the older trucks are used ... are you going to retain the 4 x 4... ETC...

 

I was hoping I could find a kit where I could use the factory transmission with a better torque converter.

but, I emailed a slough of places and nothing exists for this. Too bad because it seems like theres a lot of these trucks around with dead motors but I guess either the demand isnt there or theres just too many hurdles, or both.
