Question about Cab 12 Chevrolet FAT

[Phil Waterman]

Hi Neils

What you want to find is the later or Pattern 13 parts book, in most cases it will list the parts and where there is a difference it will will say something like early or late body style or give a serial number change over point.

In a general sense I think you will find that on the C60 and FAT Chev you will that the axles assemblies are interchangeable as units.

As to where to find brake parts first bit of confusion is that many Chev 3 Tons used FORD brakes, now as to the parts and where to find them it will depend on what you need. Brake lines etc are relatively easy to find as there are modern equivalents. Brake cylinders, in my experience have them sleeved the sleeved will out last NOS or new parts many times over.

There are several good threads about brake parts on MLU it takes a little searching to find them.

I have a lot of photos of the Axle assemblies for the Pattern 12 and 13 C60 on my web site.

Keep us posted on your progress.

Cheers Phil
