1998 Subaru Sambar Dump Truck

INCOMING FROM JAPAN

1998 Subaru Sambar Dump Truck | 5-Speed Manual | 4WD | Locking Rear Differential | Hydraulic Dump Bed

If you're looking for one of the most capable and sought-after kei trucks Subaru ever built, this 1998 Subaru Sambar Dump Truck checks all the boxes. Equipped with a factory hydraulic dump bed and the highly desirable locking rear differential, this is an uncommon configuration that's becoming increasingly difficult to find. Showing just 29,925 miles (48,159 km), this Sambar is ready to work or join any JDM collection.

Power comes from Subaru's proven EN07 660cc naturally aspirated carbureted inline 4-cylinder engine, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission. Known for its simplicity, reliability, and ease of maintenance, the EN07 has earned a reputation as one of the most dependable kei truck engines ever built.

Subaru's full-time 4WD system already provides excellent traction, but this truck goes a step further with a factory locking rear differential. A locking differential is a rare option on Sambars by itself, and finding one equipped with both the locking rear differential and the factory hydraulic dump bed is even more uncommon. Together, they make this truck exceptionally capable on farms, job sites, trails, or anywhere extra traction is needed.

The factory hydraulic dump bed makes unloading gravel, soil, mulch, firewood, debris, and other materials quick and effortless while retaining the compact dimensions that allow the Sambar to access places larger trucks simply can't.

Inside, you'll find Subaru's straightforward and durable cab layout with excellent visibility and the maneuverability that has made the Sambar one of the most popular kei trucks ever produced.
