Wheel diameter question

Gordon--your six bolt flat face wheels are 3/4 ton stuff.

The 3/4 ton WD trucks were marginally uprated versions of the half tons, with stronger shocks, springs, etc, but like everything else that's not 1 ton they use five bolt wheels.

The six bolt disc wheels are 1939 and 1940 TD and VD 20 and 21 only, 120" pickup plus 133" pickup and panel.

Trust me - I'm Scottish, and I do actually own a 1939 one ton TD 20 pickup with those wheels on it and a 1941 panel with the drop centre six bolt type too.....

My 1939 TD 20 one ton

Terry down in England has a 1941 3/4 ton WD 15 and it has five bolt wheels on it, though confusingly the WD15s were the only trucks in the series that had 15" wheels as standard (all the others were 16")

Getting close to my specialist subject here..... 8~)
