I doubt that -- Benz driveshafts are unique, and very rarely get repaired. Good luck, though -- I never found anyone who could 'round here.

Yeah was planning on the turbo version no matter which one I finally go with. Bigger springs ditto. The drive shaft shouldn't be too much of a problem. Around here with all the raised body pickups there is more then one place that can modify a driveshaft. Mercedes on the front end and the Jeep on the back end.

The six cylinder 603 is a 3 L. 149 hp and 195 ft/lbs torque (don't know what the 2.5L is, but about the same as the 617 3L I think). You want the turbo version, certainly, as the NA engine is a slug (but runs forever).

The 603 isn't all that common, alas, not used that much in the US.

If you do the swap, you will need a set of springs from the V8 probably -- that Benz engine is much heavier than the Jeep six. You will also need a custom driveshaft, which may be a hassle.
