Default Right-Hand JKs Deliver Through Rain and Sleet and Snow



For rural mail carriers, the Jeep Wrangler has had a right-hand drive option for several models. And the JK is no different.

Uh well uh they might be building them in the hundreds of thousands for all right hand drive countries.....
I guess a few stick around here for mail carriers.
Think global.

There are tens of thousands of RHD JK's in Australia, England, Japan and many other countries.
I've had one since 2010, they drive like a JK.
The only difference (apart form the steering wheel) is the battery / computer is on the other side.

They might be hard to buy in the US, but they are defiantly not a "rare" build.

Yep, Yep... I only wish they had moved the gas tank to the opposite side as well. Just be careful buying suspension parts. I drive mine everyday here in Japan. Love it! And if I ever move back to the U.S. I can deliver mail!

My 08 RHD is about to hit 100k miles in a few weeks. The best part is when someone on your right when you switch lanes sees you coming over they swerve because they think you are gonna hit them

Wish I had thought about ordering a RHD when I got my 2014. I still have an 84 Alaskan Postal Jeep in my yard, minus the full metal cab.
