What a Minicab PTO HD Dump 4WD is

Mitsubishi ended in-house Minicab production in 2014; the truck that replaced it is a rebadged Suzuki, so every Mitsubishi-built Minicab is now a closed population. The later Minicab looks semi-cab-over because Mitsubishi pushed the front axle forward for a crush zone, but the engine still sits under the driver's seat, so structurally it remained a cab-over. The engine is recorded as the 3G83, a Mitsubishi design from the company's own kei engine range.

The mechanical side of this Minicab PTO HD Dump 4WD

Under it is the 3G83, a 660cc 3-cylinder engine. The 3G83 carries a balancer shaft, which is unusual for a kei three-cylinder and is why it is smoother than its cylinder count suggests. The U42T runs a manual gearbox. The trim designation records selectable 2WD / 4WD high / 4WD low.
