Yes, they were the DJ model. My Dad was a postman and I remember when the 2WD Jeeps in right hand drive were introduced. Dad never drove them but was issued with a three-wheel scooter, the "Mailster" as they were called when the Post Office decided to mechanize his suburban mail delivery route. Prior to that he had a walking mail route of 5 miles a day he told me. After that they increased the size of the route, and he covered 7 miles a day.

Rural mail delivery postmen supplied their own vehicles as opposed to the suburban delivery route postmen who were issued vehicles. My dad was a workmate of our rural delivery postman and I seem to remember he told me he had a long wait for a "special order" right hand drive Jeep.
