You are not joking :). Ever the optimists we had a go at seeing if there was any life at all. Needless to say👎. On a more positive note the tyres had remained pumped up for 12 years to my knowledge and the newness had definitely worn off before...

Hi, I'm new to this kind of thing as this is the first forum I have ever joined. I have a 1978 BJ40 that is originally from Australia but is now in England. Someone imported it and started to strip stuff and gave up. I bought it for a song 12...

This ‘62 Four Wheeler issue (from another post) points to the gearing ratio advantage of the 3x2 over the 4x1. I guess the 4x2 wasn’t in the works yet 🤷♂️.
