1981 Jeep J10 from North America - Comments

I have owned a 1981 Jeep J10 since 1981. He has the 258 with Auto-Transmission. I put a winch and an 8 foot Meyers plow on him. The only problem I have ever had was at 110,000 I had to replace the transmission. This was after about 7 years of plowing snow every winter. Some winters we have had accumulations of more than 20 feet of snow. Thats a lot of plowing. I would never sell this guy, he is a very reliable, hard working truck. I think after this winter I will retire him from his many years of hard work and take him home from the mountains and back to the farm. I will use him for running errands on the farm. The Jeep J10 Pick-up is one good work truck. Besides that, I think the J-10 is also a very reliable truck and in my opinion a Good-looking truck as well.

I will have to strongly agree with you. I have 1980 J10, and I am very hard on it when I go mudding. It seems, the harder I am the better it runs... Now mind you that the truck has set for about 6to8 years... Then one day I decided to start driving it. So I stuck a battery in it and poured some gas in the carb... Been driving it every since... It has amazed me and it is only going to get better with the plans I have...
