BJ43? in quebec?

eleblanc · 06-13-08, 09:57 PM

Was spoted by a friend in Québec, very nice rig, as anyone ever seen it here on mud? is it own by a active mud member? From the mirror i would think it is from japan, but maybe someone with more knowledge will know better then me.

It's most likely a BJ44 (few differences). If it has the full floater, which I don't think it does then it is a BJ46.

You can tell it's not a 43 by the presses OEM fenders over the rear wheels. They were not an optionbefore 1981.

next time your friend should be prepared....make a windshild flyer....like these from yankeetoys....and include Ih8Mud.com...then when the owner posts....you will know what the rig is

and if they are a MUDer

I don't know too much about BJ43-44 etc... from the TLC FAQ there ain't much about the difference.

Not all 44's came with a full floater. It's probably a 46 as it has the factory rear wheel moldings.

And......... to my knowledge, 43's never came with a hardtop. All the ones I have seen, have been soft tops.

You are correct about the hard top, i neither never seen one with a hard top.

That has to be the most ignorant web page I've ever seen! do those guys think we all have a T-1 connection to our PC's???
okay lets put 4000 images on the same page. I wonder how many potential customers just bail befor they find the import there looking for??
okay I'am done flipping out now!

Fly Army · 06-17-08, 12:31 AM

You guys are right - 43's had the rag -top and were marketed more toward farm use. I have 79 that came from Germany that will soon have a carefully crafted hard top. I'll post pictures when it's done.
