diesel liberty is in production now, I heard their economy sucks.

In an off road magazine, there have been wranglers with a 5.9 6cyl cummins and a 3.9 4 popper. The 3.9L would probably fit the best.

Yeah that's a 4BT and I've heard a lot about using those and I can get one pretty easily, but I am not into or experienced in engine swaps such as those

I have been looking at the Jeep Liberty diesel for the last 3 months, and have test drove them. They seem to have good power and what I have read at Jeep forums they get about 25 MPG on highway.
