I found lots of kits for the up to 98 era trackers and sidekicks, anybody know of adapters for the 99+ trackers?

Which one of the '99+ Trackers are you looking at ?

Trackers were available with 1.6, 2.0 & 2.5 litre engines - the 99+ 1.6 engine has the same bellhousing bolt pattern as the pre-99 1.6 engines and the same adapter should work, if I'm not mistaken, the 2.0 also uses the same bolt pattern, and the adapter should work there also.

I saw a really nice 04 xl7 with the 2.7v6, 5 spd.  I would even entertain the idea of swapping in a 98 transmission if that would work

Diesel models were widely available outside the US, maybe you could import a half-cut like someone else on here did for the early model.
