Default Mixture

There was a specific chassis / axle / transmission / wheel combination for the T110L as a dual rear, something like T110L-D with a numeral in there too. I can never remember if the dual rear trucks came with the two-speed rear axle - I think they did.

Undoubtedly some of those pics are original dual rears, and some are ordinary T110L trucks with adapted rears - can't tell from photos.

I do have this info somewhere in the T110 manual, but not here to hand.

Perhaps the first one is a genuine London tipper as the body is very similar to those fitted to wartime Fordson 7V'S

Default Dual rears

My info has it that the T-110L-S and T-110L-13 [D-60S/DD] had dual rears. I assume that the T-110L-12 with 160" w.b. [D-60L/DD] also had duals.

Default Different kind of T110

Hello GORDON

In our garage in FRANCE (MVCG PARIS) we have had the 3 kinds of DODGE T110
T110 D60 L5 long wheel base, dual speed at the rear axle and single wheel at the front and the rear. In this case the hub owns 8 nuts. (british wheel)
T110 D60 L9 long wheel base, single speed at the rear axle and dual wheels at the rear axle
T110 D60 L12 long wheel base, dual speed at the rear axle and dual wheels at the rear axle
In the two last cases hub owns 5 nut
T110 L14 long wheel base single speed at the rear axle and dual wheels at the rear axle but it's saying that there were for civilian use
regard

Again 7V info I am afraid: I have a HMG disposal sale data base on one of my archived discs, I am positive there were loads of GXF reg 7V tippers. note the sliding cab roof hatch; Government procured 7V for both civil & military use all appear to have either a sliding hatch or double skin reinforced cab top.
Attached is one from the GXO block. My filing system is far from fit for purpose but as soon as I find the database I will list the reg blocks if anyone is interested.
