Under the skin of a 1999 Hi-Jet PTO HD Dump EFI 4WD

This Hi-Jet PTO HD Dump EFI 4WD is fitted with a manual gearbox. On the specification it carries selectable 2WD / 4WD high / 4WD low.

What a Hi-Jet PTO HD Dump EFI 4WD is

Daihatsu sold the Hijet in an unusually wide spread of factory body styles — flatbed, PTO dump, panel van, canvas top, the extended-cab Jumbo from 1983 and the four-seat Deck Van from 1988 — because Japanese buyers specified them for particular trades. 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. The Hijet was built to be maintained by its owner rather than by a dealer: the seats tip forward, the engine is right there, and the service points are deliberately obvious.

Practicalities of this Hi-Jet PTO HD Dump EFI 4WD

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. A 1999 build date puts this one well past the 25-year federal import threshold. Price on this one is $23,900.
