Hi Bob
If you mean the wheel lifting flanges, yes, most of the datable 1945 HUPs and larger CMPs have the lifting flanges. But I don't remember the actual date of this change. The addition of the lifting flanges on rear axle, for the HUP, is not a big deal just means longer bolts. With larger CMPs the rear axle flange would be a little more difficult as the use studs and locking cones on each bolts, so adding the lift flanges would mean longer studs and some accommodation for the cones would have to be made between the lifting flange plate and the axle end. The front lifting flange requires the front brake drums be drilled for larger mounting studs. I've never check to see if the old stile nut cap and the lift flange type are inner changeable other that the bolt/stud size. Your question though prompts and interesting question than I'm going to post as a new thread in Soft Skin Forum. Cheers Phil

The most recent acquisition at the barn, a C15A, had the lifting rings. One thing of note was that on the rear axle there were the usual axle shafts held in place by the split and tapered cones. Outboard of the cones, the lifting rings are held in place by longer versions of the studs used on vehicles without the rings, however there are plugs within the lifting ring that have a flange outboard of the lifting ring and a barrel within the lifting ring slightly longer than the lifting ring is thick. These plugs are a loose, but not sloppy, fit in the lifting ring to ensure that the clamping force of the nut on the driveshaft flange studs is passed directly to the tapered cone washer and not absorbed by the lifting ring.

Hi Haridimos,
The military vehicles in Iron Eagle IV are owned by the Ontario Regiment Museum ("the Ferret Club") in Oshawa. Most of the shots shown were taken in and around the Museum located on the South Field of Oshawa Airport. The HUW (serial # 2844515234, built Aug 14, 1942) is still in the collection but currently is in storage. When I last saw it, it looked a lot like it did in the picture from the movie although it now has an engine installed and will move on its own. It is usually on display for the OMVA annual shows, sometimes with a 19 set installed. Brian |

Some interesting shots here: http://flickeflu.com/groups/1663433@N23
Some we have seen before. Some of the trucks belong to some of us. Quite the variety (includes fine scale models). Most enjoyable CMP peep show. A local (Ottawa) celebrity can be found in one of the photos.
