Roadless Ploughmaster 65 Tractor Axle
Dear Richard
Many thanks for the reply, the 4wd system fitted to the Roadless 65 was fitted and part manufactured by Roadless Traction limited, Hounslow, Middlesex, England.A plate affixed to the axle states that the system was produced under licence and sites Italian patent Nrs 21228/526912-21956/510154/26287/ also British pat pending Nrs 36067/54-28060/56-28386/56.
I believe the licence to produce the system was taken from the Italian company Selene, known for other 4WD Tractor units.
We know for certain that the origins of the Axle and Diff was GM, I would like more information on the type and designation of this axle, and a workshop manual for it's settings etc. I assume in the USA or Canada there will be specialists in Military Vehicles/Surplus that may well hold spares for this unit, the problem is finding them !
Thanks again
Mark Jarrold
