Welcome. Not everybody frequents the welcome center so maybe repost your questions in general to another forum area. Maybe the bigbolt forum. I don't think there was a 1 1/4 ton, so it's probably a 1 1/2 ton.

For pictures, you need to get them uploaded to some site like photobucket and then post links here. See the directions over to the left of this page near the bottom.

Welcome to Stovebolt! Sounds like something the guys and gals would find very interesting. Post in General Truck forum right here at Stovebolt and see if we can't figure this out. Good Luck!

Welcome tmix, it's often challenging to find out what exactly you have. Is this a frame only or is there a truck on it? I'm sure someone in the big bolts has the answer for you.
