Tube shocks or lever?

Huck brakes or Bendix?

Which bellhousing crossmember does it have?

If it has a 248 it must be a US made truck, not a Canadian.

It's true. I really don't do anything but browse the Internet looking for trouble...

Okay so its no older than 1950 based on the tube shocks.

Are the pads on the bellhousing crossmember flat or angled? Flat means its a '50 to '53, while angled would mean '54 or '55 1st.

How close do you need to be?
