I'd suggest posting this question over on the Big Bolt forum. You may get better results there. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 6,100 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 6,100 | Hy Chrislon, welcome, according to my Canadian parts book the last year that the 9600 series was produced in the post WW2 design was 1951, and they had a GVW of 15,500 lbs., in 1950 this same chassis was referred to as a 2 1/2 ton. This series of truck was not produced again until the 1955 "B" or second series, hope that helps. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2001 Posts: 268 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Apr 2001 Posts: 268 | Hi Chrislon A picture would be worth a lot in identifying you truck weight. Here is my 1952 450 series GMC, it is 454-30... 3 ton flatbed dump with 179 inch wheel base and has a 302 CID L6 engine. http://s1253.photobucket.com/albums/hh594/GMCPic/
