Question about Cab 12 Chevrolet FAT

[Phil Waterman]

Hi Niels

Well I found the photos and measurements for my Pattern 12 C60L which has the smaller diameter drums.

Front and Rear Shoes are different my photo notes show the fronts as being 2" wide and the rears as being 3 1/2" wide.

Also found the brake cylinder information and source (will somebody help confirm these) the source is MAC's Antique Auto Parts .

These number match the CMP parts book and MAC's shows them as having them Rear 91T-2261 1 1/2" diameter Fronts 92Y-2261 1 3/8" diameter (note you have to type it into their side with the dash)

Cheers Phil

Thank you very much guys.
I will take look in the weekend to see if I can use the brakes from my C30 or if I have to get a new set of everything.
I was lucky and found these two books in the UK.

I have had the chance to work a bit on the CGT.
I got the it charging again, I am not quite sure how, I took the dynamo apart and cleaned it, I cleaned the points in the regulator and wires going to them, but nothing happen, but then suddenly yesterday it started charging.

My CGT has a small third fuel tank installes, which I think is a piece of the Artic equipment, the one gallon primer fuel tank, it sure looks like the one LWD parts has for sale.

There is a primer pump installed just above the steering column
The small tank is installed in the left side, just in front of the normal tank.
The hole for the filler neck is very crudely cut.
Do any one know if this is the correct placement for this primer tank?

Hi Bob

MB-C2 (W) Supplement To Maintenance Manual MB-C2 Covering Special Cold Weather Equipment link from my site seems to work from here. But try the full address http://canadianmilitarypattern.com/S...0Equipment.htm if that dosen't work try going to my site directly http://canadianmilitarypattern.com/ and look down under the section Manuals and Drawings and try clicking on the link from there.

Please let me know if it doesn't work so I can fix the links.

Cheers Phil
