AWM 126 is a series of ledgers - you'll need to ask for the right ones. Not sure how things are now but several years ago when I last looked at some they had to be ordered in advance as they were being kept offsite. I'd imagine you'd be able to ask for the one with that particular range of ARNs though.

Correct Keith you can order to view a particular ARN or range on line a fiew days before going to Canberra. For first timers you have to regester as a reasurcher first then order.
When you regester you get a RCIS number this speeds up the ordering of books for research.

If you hear a Winjeel flying over Ganmain tomorrow I'll probably be in it heading for Temora.

Is there any markings on the outside of the drum or axle that identify which type it is that you want ?
Hopefully he will find tank i am looking for so will get back out there then

Default That would be VERY helpful

I'll keep and eye out Keefy

I was only kidding Andrew but of course if you are going back I'd be grateful if you could have a sticky beak.

I cant say I know of any special marks Andrew. A lot of the Chev guys I spoke to a Corowa call it a Timken axle.

On the backing plate this brake shoe set up is like a Ford Blitz with Cams at the bottom and also further up the backing plate for minor and major shoe adjustments. So the adjusters (where you might put a socket) are visible from the outside.
