Fourtrak ??

[brewpup]

Any one with pros n cons on the 2.8 fourtrak 7 seater. Picking up a £400 84 plate non mot. It's been of road for 2 years. Did look good condition. New tyres roadstone ? 120 k.

My first jeep was a little four track, the 2.8 commercial. I loved it!

They were brilliant jeeps and amazing at towing.

I didn't realise they did a 4 seater.

I'm sure you will have realistic expectations of £400 , 19 year old jeep.

Good luck

HI MATE my old mate love them they rust well in there time they pulled 3.5tons to thanks jon

I had one for years. Was a p reg a bit more modern but but pretty much the same. Sills were rotting a bit after I'd abused it for a few years. Think they did a galvanised one as well. Engine bullet proof, got a load of bits in the shed if you want em. Great little truck, towed anything and never let me down

Cheers could with some rear clusters lights if you got any

i got a 96 fieldman, engines are bullet proof, rot is a problem but nothing can be sorted if you know a good welder, watch for steering play as arms and bushes could be gone, early gear boxes have a nut problem that comes loose and stops second gear and reverse, a good example will run for ever if looked after properly, very capable trucks

 

atkinson automotives at stoke are the boys to look after them

Only got engine bits left. Radiators and brakes only problems I had with mine

Whooly owned by Toyata, i believe.

Popular with the farming community here at one time.

Very very highly rated for their towing capabilities.

Reputably as tough as they were thirsty though.

[scraggs]

Really nice tow trucks, if they still made them I would have a new one without a question.

I had a 1989 commercial from new (rear leaf springs), then later a 97 commercial (independent). I regularly towed 3.5 tonne (sometimes more) as well as doing motorway trips solo.

 

They were brilliant

 

I sort of have a hankering after another if I could find a pristine late model.
