| | THANKS!
For helping keep this great
old truck web site
on the Internet for over 30 years! and not clogged down with Ads! Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: May 2001 Posts: 1,904 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: May 2001 Posts: 1,904 | I have the 1947-1954 Truck Factory Assembly Manual. Some of the drawings give specific models, such as "Models 3100 - 3600 - 3800 - etc" but other drawings say "Models - All RD."
What's RD stand for? Thanks!!
Also is there an index somewhere so you don't have to go through every page, one by one, to find the drawing you're looking for? Thanks, again. 1948 3/4-Ton 5-Window Flatbed Chevrolet 34 Years. Now with a '61 261, 848 head, Rochester Monojet carb, SM420 4-speed, 4.10 rear, dual reservoir MC, Bendix up front, 235/85R16 tires, 12-volt w/alternator, electric wipers and a modern radio in the glove box.

Someone on this sight made up an index perhaps they will chime in. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2010 Posts: 4,263 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jan 2010 Posts: 4,263 | | | | | | Joined: May 2001 Posts: 1,904 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: May 2001 Posts: 1,904 | Ah, yes. I was focused on the gas pedal but I see the drawing includes a cross-over rod to get the action to the left side of the engine from the right side pedal.
