I talked to a local tire salesman and he mentioned the '17.5' tires. I thought he knew what he was talking about. Maybe not. You'd understand if you spent some time in the area.
The tires on it now say 7 x 18, so I'm pretty sure the wheels are 18".
This is that weird truck with the 1950 title, 1953 engine and 1952 3/4 ton cab. Could they have put the 3/4 tone front clip on it too?
I've got a 1951 1 1/2 ton, and the fenders are definitely a lot bigger. Should 1 ton fenders be the same, or was there a size between 1 ton and 3/4 ton. Come to think of it, did the 1 ton non-dually have different front fenders than the dually?
I forgot, 53MoneyPit, that you are from around here.
Just to muddy the waters a little more. The brake drums appear to be about 14 inches in diameter at the widest part.
