A former mail carrier I know brought this RHD TJ over for me to see why it drove sloppy-

I never want to drive one again- it was like wiping your butt with the wrong hand.

It was the most unnatural driving experience and it felt like you were about to fall out. Basically it worked against all your learned muscle memory and spatial skills.

I declare it felt like math phone and everything was backwards for about an hour.

Mickle the shess out of ya.

Ive contemplated a RHD Cruiser many times as a buddy had one. I think its more mind boggling sitting on the left side with no steering wheel to grasp that actually driving it from the wrong side.

The most notable thing is reaching for the turn signal and hitting the wipers. You could always identify new people by seeing their wipers start going at an intersection.

Aside from what side your steering wheel is on, you haven't known embarrassment/terror until you see some dumb ass driving head on at you on your side of the road flashing his lights and honking his horn only to realize you are the one on the wrong side of the road 😂 😕

Is it a factory rhd or a conversion? I did a lot of work to a neighbors converted mail tj over the years trying to keep her imbetween the lanes. There was some funky shit going on underneath.
