Front Axles for 10 bolt Front Hubs-1.5 ton Australian Chevrolet Trucks 1940-1945

[Philippe Jeanneau]

Looking for information, specifically the part number for the front axle (2 ton?) used with the 10 bolt front hubs, fitted to 1.5 ton Australian Chevrolet trucks between the years 1940-1945. My front axle beam is marked 365291 GM198.
Thank you.

Hey mate ,
I’m restoring a 1940 chev and it’s got the same part number as you’ve listed

The front axle for a Chev 1940 series 15 2 ton is 365291.....and they have the Hyatt bicycle ball bearings..... not the Timken rollers.

Shaun....do you have a picture of your front axle / hub / brake drum arrangement???? and do you have a casting number of 1701380 on your brake drum???? thanks

Bob

Here’s some photos I already have , and I can get more in the next few days if you need anything in particular and to get a casting number for you

[Shaun Mastin]

Are these better ?

[Bob Carriere]

..... part number on the cast iron brake drum checks out for all 1940 Chevrolet and Maple Leaf trucks.

What I would like to see, whenever you get to that stage, is a photo of the HUB/adapter that attaches the rim to the brake drum...... should be like this photo.

The larger flange is the rim side 5 bolts .........the smaller flange fits into the brake drum.....and maybe 4 1/4 inches flange to flange.

Have you looked for a raised part number inside the front beam axle????***** ANSWERED IN A PREVIOUS POSTING

Thanks
