Typical Aussie truck. Built for work, fun and survival.

Love the bumper. I'll send pics of a Aussie bumper I saw here on a 87-91 (us spec)

Yep. Could tell it's an Aussie truck just by the looks of it.

The upper part of that bumper looks like it'd fit a newer Dodge.

Thanks for the great pictures of the right hand drive stuff. Things I never thought about sure do stand out. Like the ac heater box on the other side and the brake booster on the other side. And finally the parking brake on the other side. Nice look truck interior too. Interesting to see the winch on the back too.

Hi,

Welcome to OB and Kudos for all the great pics

I'm not sure why you may be having difficulty posting multiple images but I'll see if I can help being one of the Photobucket guys here.

So when you click on the IMG code and paste it into your thread, once you see it hit ENTER and then go back to photo bucket and get another image copy the code and do the same thing over again. You can post a maximum of 15 images including smiley faces in a single response to the thread.

It's not hard to do I'm sure since you got images loading you can figure it out.

Good luck with the posting

Take some time and look around we have lots of info and such here to help out.

Again thanks for posting and again welcome to OB

Al

the dash doesnt really turn my senses.. the t-case shifter.. pedals.. engine bay!


most rhd design changes seem to mirror the original parts

Well the stamping of the firewall must be a mirror image, since both the HVAC and the brake M/C are reversed. Pedals, except for the parking brake when applicable, are never reversed. There was a guy on a car forum I'm on who actually thought that RHD cars with manual transmissions had the shift pattern reversed. The tricky thing with this truck is the t-case. How would you mount a shifter on the other side? 'Course, one solution would be the pushbutton electric control.

Hmm, the hood release is on the left?

Nice 'roo catcher, BTW. We could use something like that for the four-long-legged kangaroos we have up here called deer.

Very interesting.

While in college I worked at a car wash for minimum wage with a bunch of guys who where, how to say this, a few short of a full deck. It was pretty funny the few times that we had RHD vehicles in, postal vehicles mostly and a few euro cars (including a Jeep Cherokee), because they'd jump in the driver's side, after vacuuming out the entire car, and only when they were looking for a steering wheel and pedals would they notice the fact that it was RHD.
