May I appeal please for any advice on what engineering was required to adapt the F60H chassis, with its rear bogie, from the C60L? The photo of a F60H wrecker in W & T on CMP WRECKERS shows that they used initially at least Chevrolet front axles, and therefore Chevrolet rear axles. By the way, that's not the photo referred to in the previous paragraph!
David, from my reading on the subject, the GM front axles were used for a short time due to supply problems with the first Ford ones, and the rear axles including the non-driven one were Ford product.
