    Why wasn’t this available in the US? – I would have bought one in a NY minute. As it was I bought a Ford Ranger Diesel that year. There was rumors of a Jeep Cheyenne pickup fitted diesel that year, but after checking all the dealers I never found one. Back then diesel fuel was cheaper then gas and I got 40MPG – it was a good deal

    If they’d have stuck a cj7 front on this they would have sold like hot cakes. How’s your ranger diesel hold up?

    Gordon is correct in his recollection. I saw several of them at the State of Arizona Surplus Auction a few years ago. They were all Arizona Air National Guard aircraft tugs, with identical front ends as this one, but no bed behind the cab.

    You only see the CJ-10 tugs here in the ‘States so it makes sense to believe that was the only CJ-10 version produced. However, non-tug CJ-10 trucks were produced for several overseas markets. They were a very capable Jeep, not a one trick pony like the CJ-10 tug. This very nice Swedish version looks like one of those trucks. I wish we could find them here.

    I used to drive those tugs in the Air Force pulling bomb trailers. I don’t know the pulling capacity, but we pulled 30,000 pounds with one out at nellis once. The diesel was an absolute powerhouse.

    Update. Had a starter made. Runs like a top extended wheelbase and made it 4wd love it never seen anything like it.

    Randy,

    Congrats on finding a starter solution. I’m happy to hear it’s working great for you!

    The CJ10 was sold in Australia as a J10 in the 80’s and looked the same as the Swedish version but they also had the AMC 258 engine from the CJ. The J10 in Australia was 4×4. In 1984/85 Jeep Australia in Queensland made a limited version with the standard CJ front grille. I have a J10 in Australia. They are still very popular with jeep enthusiasts.
