Air Compressor
Most of the stuff I've read says that the air compressors were only used on vehicles with two speed transfer cases. These articles state that they weren't used on the C8A HUPs but the C8A Personnel parts manual lists them as optional equipment. If the parts manual lists them as optional equipment why would these other articles be so definite that they weren't used here?

Optional?
Perhaps it means they were capable of being fitted if required, as these vehicles shared the same gearbox with the larger vehicles.
The Ford parts books list a Thornton-Welles locking differential being available as optional, but I have never heard of any vehicles being so equipped. |

Since the C8A's single speed transfer case does not have a neutral position, the air compessor would only be able to be used if the vehicle were in motion or if it had it's driving wheels jacked off the ground. Cheers Rod |

Maybe they put the compressor on the transmission on C8As. I got one that a farmer had installed on the trans on a civilian 46 Chev that he converted to a spray truck.
