Please do so, I'm curious to know more. Any type of Yankee Joe is rare in this country as that class of vehicle was filled with CMPs. The Australian Army aquired very few American Chev 4x4s.
One give away in regards to identification on these trucks is the transfer case. There were three different patterns.
1/ Single output yoke at rear. (Hand brake in rear hubs).
2/Two outputs at rear. Lower to rear diff, upper had a hand brake drum mounted and drove nothing else.
3/ Two outputs at rear. Lower to rear diff, upper yoke connected to auxiliary gearbox to drive earth borer and or winch. No hand brake drum. (Hand brake in rear hubs).
It seems a rather high percentage of Yankee Joes here were earth borer/pole setters. Cargo trucks are in the minority with bomb trucks, tractor units or vans unheard of to my knowledge. I would be quite interested to learn otherwise. I have a liking for these little trucks and recently imported one from the U.S.
