Your vehicle is totally different to the one in Australia. I can not see anything the same either in the chassis or any of the mechanicals.

They must have produced different machines from the ground up.

It is interesting to note that in the last pictures there appear to be two halves of a CMP "Universal Coupler" that would have been used on CMP Artillery Tractors between the PTO and Winch.

This is a very common design of low speed coupler. It is seen very often (in smaller sizes) on steering column joints and boat prop shafts.

That is often referred to as a 'Layrub' coupling, made by Laycock if I recall correctly. Many vehicles used these in their drive lines.

An earlier discussion of the Layrub joint (and difficulty finding them) took place at http://www.mapleleafup.net/forums/sh...ghlight=layrub
