David ,

One reason the 8 cwt's were put off the road in the 1950's was a lack of replacement tyres . 9.00 X 13 was a odd size and after the original wartime tyres gave out , some trucks were just stored away and didn't see much use .

I have here a registration paper for a Ford F8 that was registered in Quebec in the 1950's , I'll try to scan it and post it here .

Let us know how the axle conversion goes .
