Powertrain on this Hijet Dump

The 1992 Hijet Dump came with a 4-speed gearbox, and that is what this one has. The point of four-wheel drive here is being able to finish the job in conditions that would strand a two-wheel-drive truck of the same weight.

Odometer and specification — Hijet Dump

Recorded against this 1992 Hijet Dump: 50163 on the odometer and a Japanese auction grade of 3.5/B. That reading of 50163 came to us without a unit attached, and we have left it exactly as found.

Background: the Hijet Dump

Every four-wheel-drive Minicab from 1984 onward got twelve-inch front disc brakes and automatic free-wheeling front hubs as standard. Daihatsu supplies the Hijet to other makers for rebadging — Toyota since 2011, Subaru since 2012 — and it was licence-built abroad as the Piaggio Porter in Italy and the Asia Towner in Korea. A 1992 Hijet sits in the middle of a production run that has outlasted most of the companies that started building trucks alongside it.

Import and ownership — 1992 Daihatsu Hijet Dump

Four-wheel drive on a dump body matters most when the bed is full and the ground is soft — which is usually the same moment. We describe what is recorded and nothing more. If a figure is not on this page, it is because we do not have it on file. It is listed at $5,900. Japan's kei category exists because small vehicles are taxed and registered differently there, and the Hijet Dump was built specifically to qualify.
