CasualObserver 3,406 #3 Posted September 16, 2008 In Mike Martino's book he tells about 100 RJ tractors that were shipped to Spain. They were the influence in the redesign of the front axle from square steel tube to cast iron. I'd imagine they're few and far between, but there's RJs on up over there. Not too long ago I had an email from a gent named Mike who has a rusty old 1960 Suburban 400 over there. I don't know when the Belgium plant opened, but tractors were exported from stateside as early as the late 50s. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
