Those bicycle type cup and cone ball bearings were also used on the Lease/Lend Chev front axle. The balls are not loose, they are ganged in a cage arrangement and can be picked up as a single unit.
One strange anomaly is that the shorter (civilian?) version of the L/L truck is always to be found with a heavier front axle using barrel rollers. The longer L/L truck nearly always with the lighter axle and bicycle bearings?? David

Thanks for those three pictures Mike, nice and clear too. The first and last are new to me, and great for scaling out the size of the trailer.
Does anyone know what colour the fire extinguishers would have been? I've heard that a lot of WWII extinguishers were either green or brass, but not red. Allan

Thanks for the pictures Tony. There can't be many of these left, surely, so good to see one more.
