Default Lighter model

In my understanding the front axles for 3 ton payload CMPs were all the lighter (4 7/8") type until the 6" steering ends were introduced sometime in 1942. So the axle shown is correct for your vehicle. The brake drums for the 6" type were a lot wider.
The 4 7/8" type steering ends were then used only on the lighter 15CWT and 30CWT models.
