Default code

Jim

The part numbers are civilian Ford standard codes relating to the Ford model code for each chassis ... e.g. 1 ton or 3 ton or whatever.

I know that the 01Y prefix = 1940 1 ton chassis 122" w.b.

I think 01T = the 3 ton model .

They may have used the front crossmember from the civilian 3 ton model on the F8.. maybe you can find a 1940 or 41 3 ton truck and compare the crossmembers .
