Certain markets (probably those that assembled their own CKD models) appeared to have used the larger cabs for all models, including the J1, J2, J3 and J4 rather than the specific front end for the low-load height cab. It would be a J2 or larger, probably local assembly.

So some extra reinforcement has possibly been added under the chassis to prevent the driver's door being impacted too hard? -- Last edit: 2016-04-14 10:42:10
