Default To add to the confusion of Ford and Chevy parts.

Hi All

Just to add to the confusion of part sharing parts, to my knowledge all HUPs have Ford front brakes, as do both of my C60 trucks. And the F15A parts book has a numeric listing of nearly two pages of Chevy parts. So there was a significant sharing of parts. I'm sure as vehicles were repaired and overhauled whole assemblies such as front and rear axles crossed over from vehicle to vehicle.

There is of course the wide spread use of Ford V8s as replacements for most anything that moved in North Africa. (see Gregg"s book)

Cheers Phil
