Gujranwala it was.
I've seen a ton of MUTTs in Gujranwala and Kharian sector. Both are Corp HQs, hence they have Ordnance Depots. Both XXX Corp and I Corps unloaded a huge load of mutts from 2006-2011.

Baois! Long time no see my friend. How have you been?
That is a year old post so may or may not get an answer but looking down beside the engine it appears to be the Toyota transmission and also appears to be two wheel drive. I do not see and front axles in the pictures where you can see under the vehicle.

That is a Toyota 2C Diesel Engine. 2.0 mated to a transmission out of early rear wheel drive Toyota Corolla. The 2C engine is not hard to mate to the original gear box but the engine itself requires a lot of changes for example different facing oil pump, a custom made sump, an altered flywheel and if you do manage to get it all to fit. The drive train doesn't really cope well with the diesel's low end torque. Sudden excitement with the accelerator usually follows with a loud pop and there goes a u-joint. Forget the welding and cutting in the body to make it fit aswell.

To understand what is going on here. Culturally, if it looks like a jeep. It is a jeep and hence can go anywhere. The idea of a working 4x4 is very hard for people to fathom. Most of these jeeps are for road use and ricer show. Off-road capability is the least concern. So as you can see the Jeep is overly riced...ahem... Decorated yet is useless off the pavement.

Sherwan, All the old timers are coming out of the woodwork. Good to see you are still in the loop also.
