yun canter FE435 (wide) 4D32 /6w namin halos naikot buong luzon bataan/zambales/quezon/bicol/ilocos regions 10yrs din hanga sa nabenta hindi binaba makina... every year bago registro change oil/filter 3x a year (delo gold/503-305 vic filters/air cleaner) pasa sa smoke emmision test

upgrade at para makaiwas sa truck ban: isuzu nkr (cateye) 4w/4JG2 2 years palang baba na makina/overheat lagi
isuzu npr (cateye)-6w 4BE1 so far ok pa, medyo mausok lang (over a year of service)

canter user here. We use them for hauling and delivery of LPG. We have 14 footer and 10 footer canters. all canters with 4d32 engine. Wala ako masabi sa performance at tatag ng engine nito. monday to saturday ang byahe ng mga truck namin sunday lang ang pahinga. We have not encountered major problem with them. Mas nahirapan pa akmi sa Fighter namin na may 6d14-3at engine. Ang hirap maghanap ng pyesa since bago and di gaano marami ang dumating sa pinas from japan. BTW all our trucks were japan surplus. Mas maigi na daw japan surplus kesa sa pinoy surplus.

Dagdag ko lang. We use to have elf with 4be1 engine. Walang kwenta kung mabigat ang load! mabilis bumigay ang crankshaft nya.

2nd hand lang Mitsubishi canter pala vs. isuzu elf, kaso yung mitsu imported version. anong advantage at disadvatage ng bawat isa?

Hi guys! I'm thinking of buying a Fuso Canter truck with 4D33 engine. It is a FE507BT chassis series, Japan surplus, 6 wheeler. Load is about 2 tons per trip from Manila to Laguna and back everyday. Mahirap ba maghanap ng pyesa for the 4D33? Matibay ba ito for heavy load?

Gusto ko subukan ang Canter naman. Had a bad experience with the Isuzu Elf 4BE1, had the engine overhauled twice in 4 years.

Billray,

If your load is only 2 tons, better get a 4 wheeler. 6 wheeler sakit sa ulo ang truck ban. Isipin mo truck ban na coding pa

Ok ang Canter. In my experience, mas matibay ang Canter vs Elf. My oldest Canter is a 1980's vintage, 88 or 89 if memory serves. Its still running. Had to change the cab and van 2 or 3 times and had it overhualed at least 3 times.

[SIZE=2]all my trucks are isuzu elf 4BE1. most of my trucks are 8 yrs old. japan surplus. havent experienced so much problems except for the clutch lining replacement and some leaks from the brake master and oil seals. Havent tried the canter, but I want to purchase several of it so i could compare it with my isuzu elfs. where do you recommend i purchase several units of it?

Thanks Userfriendly for the advise. Malamang Canter na ang bilihin namin.

Samira, marami dyan along EDSA across SM North Edsa. I was referred to GLC Truck. Mukhang ok naman mga truck nila na Japan surplus.
