I bought this 2ton tow truck because I liked the tow rig on it. I m identifying what I have so I can determine parts selection and availability of parts. 2ton parts don’t seam as common. I matched the intake and block numbers to a 1958-62 261 motor. One more number I can’t see will tell me the year and month the block was made. So motor was replaced at some point. How do I know what rear is in it. Number location? It’s huge. Knowing what rear I can then order brake parts or is the upgrades for brakes. Not sure but trans. May be 4 speed with reverse left and back. Also has pto drive off trans for winch. I think I’d just like to keep the hand crank for the looks. Where are numbers on the trans. I have some emails out but will need lots of parts once I know what I have.
