C60 cwt Signals CZMk IV

My computer skills are very poor and I can't upload the parts book page too show the missing parts, so its a thousand words instead. From the transfer case control shifter an operator goes down to the high/low declutch shaft in the transmission. It requires brackets to steady the cross control shaft that hold the operators that connect the shifter to the declutch shaft. All the plates and operators are missing. If this doesn't make sense, it is shown page 110 of the C60L 3 Ton spare parts book.
Everything from part #4.4993 to 4.4998 is missing, not a huge problem, just be nice to have.

Hi Gordon

Without going all the way back through the thread do you have a engine, bell-housing and transmission?

Cheers Phil

YOu need parts for the shifting system that goes from the 2 speed shifter tower to the front axle for choosing 2x2 or 4x4....

Usually bolted to the back end of the tranny ....... could be reproduced easily if needed or no original found.

Phil..... he should have the tranny at least....possibly the bellhousing.....BUT there was no engine....... but Gord is resources full and in a rural area,,,,,, whatch him dig up a 261 for rebuilding.....

Cheers

I'll probably not bother getting the front drive engage mechanism for the truck, I can still engage the high/low which might come in handy. I have a 235c.i. engine gone through and just about ready to start up. You and Stewart, from Woodstock, are the 261 gurus, I couldn't handle all that power. The guys from Petrolia have been very gracious on helping me out with some cross over parts from the 216 to the 235 and set me up with a good transmission.

Hi Gord

Just fell off the firewood pile...... too dark to work.

the 4x4 option is good to have..... even when not engaged you will be spinning ALL the innards fo the front axle anyways. if your rear end is stuck on wet soft grass low range may not make much difference but the front axle kicking might make a difference.

You did have a tranny in the back of the truck didn't you.....

Are you going to connect the power brake system...... would be interested in how you do it..... parts wise in particular.

Anything I can help you with just ask.

Cheers

I found a good 235 engine and did a very limited refurbish to it. It has fill flow oil and hydraulic lifters, and I raised the water pump with the adapter plate. I have been getting educated in the differences in ring gear teeth numbers and clutch plate diameters. I have the proper ring gear for the military starter and the large diameter clutch plate for a truck. I think I have the engine and tranny combo sorted.

If I can't post a scan of the parts manual then do you really expect that I can post a video of an engine start up!!!!!

I think that I will try and find some way to have a brake booster that functions. The 15 Cwt. isn't prone to hurling me into the windshield and the increased weight of a 60 Cwt. will have to have the brakes boosted. I would wonder if the original booster could be replaced with the CCKW booster. There must be some thing that keeps those trucks going.

As to the four wheel drive engage, hopefully I wont be into that wet of conditions that the truck wont move in two wheel drive. If the need arises it will be desperate straights and I can crawl under the truck and engage manually. I think I should be able to.

I have been stripping down the cab and chassis to sand blast, hopefully some of it will be done this week
