MD Juan

Here is a news feature of MD Juan on ANC Business Nightly a popular Businessnews show in the Philippines. MDJuan produces replacement and restoration WW2 Military and Civilian Jeep body tubs and sheet metal parts.

Recognizing an opportunity to assist its customers in restoring jeeps it previously sold, the company registered Northstar Industrial Mfg. Co. Inc. in 1967 to engage in the manufacture of jeep collision parts. Soon Jeepstar was into stamping parts and even assembled and sold hydraulic presses for this purpose through its sister company, Unistar Machinery Equipment and Parts, Inc. The birth of Northstar and later on Unistar, began the vertical integration of M.D. Juan Enterprises Inc. The early 1970s saw M.D.Juan boldly exploring new territory, with its shift from local to foreign markets, and the introduction of its Jiffy kits. The export of its jeep body parts to the Unites States would later prove to be a key decision for the company. M.D.Juan machine-made jeep replacement body parts were carried by the best direct sales /catalog houses such as Warshawsky and Co. and Steel Horse Automotive. Contact with jeep enthusiasts/ parts distributors in the United States proved fruitful. In conjunction with such personalities, MDJuan was able to develop a lot of body parts for different types of models in the Jeep® family primarily for the U.S. market.

Before the decade closed, MDJuan participated in its first international Auto show in Singapore. This led to the participation in more trade shows: in Lausanne, Switzerland and Melbourne, Australia; as well as the tapping of new markets in Europe, Australia and Japan. Still, the US remained its primary market. Collaboration with premier original Jeep parts supplier, both in the US East (Bensinger) and West (Archer Brothers) coasts, helped the R&D Dept of MDJuan to complete the MBs ever growing list of parts needed for accurate restoration of 1942 issues.
As MDJuan products gained recognition for its quality, more distributors partnered up with them, such as Omix-Ada, which in 1998 started what is now a thriving MDJuan parts business, supplying most of the US Mainland.
MDJuan is the only source in South East Asia for machine-stamped and forged third party /aftermarket replacement Jeep® parts, restoration parts and other automotive sheetmetal parts. The company has the capacity to tool up for any special part that is no longer being manufactured by the original manufacturers. Experts in their field, MDJuan engineers can instantly respond to market demands for special makes or special orders alongside its mainstream fenders, body panels, tailgates, and most other metal body parts.

Manpower and machinery guarantee short runs, timely delivery, and the best prices on special makes. And best of all, MDJuan has a continuous supply of body parts for virtually all Jeep® models from 1942 to present.

Truly, there is only one special source of Jeep® replacement & restoration parts and accessories in the Far East and that could only be MDJuan. Though it has attempted a few name changes, the name MDJuan has become synonymous with the most reliable source of special parts for MBs and other war vintage issues.

And DON'T scrap that old body! You just might want that dash board if you aren't doing a CJ2A. A peak underneath also to grab that parking brake return spring bracket that isn't on your new tub. Proudly Phillipine made?

Oh, I almost forgot. Maybe,just maybe that old frame of yours isn't wracked. It just might be the tub is wracked by about a half an inch. Don't ask me how I know. Enjoy.

Once the trans/transfer cover is done fab raised cover plates to cover enlarged holes and give added height needed for stick shift boot. Beware of transfer sticks(you were warned)!
