I have the original service manual and it only rates the truck at 1 1/2 ton ????
Some specifics on my truck: 1942 1 1/2 ton ???
: 216 cc and 4 speed box
: 160" wheel base
: single axel
:single speed diff with duel wheels
: The flat bed is 12 ft with 10 boards across
Quick note is that the truck is part of the blackout series that was built in Detroit as a R/H drive (sent to Australia) to help with war effort in 1942
I would just like to make sure i have all my info correct
Hope you can help
Cheers Justin
