    H.Ford had F marked on everything that he could, bolt heads etc. Possibly from the small tracked carrier.

    28 mm is 3/4 drive territory. there should be thread visible outside of the nut, try a known nut on that or see if you can make out the direction of the thead. You may have to try the nut back to front if they are chamfered or have captive washers.

    Not as polished now should be better.

    Proves AEC engineers knew what they were doing in the engine build dept. You could lift the air pressure 5 to 10 psi. Its probably low after all of these years. Would a continental type beam changer be legal on the Maxter?

    Does it have slack adjusters that you can move the clevice on the brake chamber rod to a different hole to increase length and leverage.

    Petrol and diesel versions are totaly different animals. One is a long 4 stroke straight 8, and the other is a compact opposed piston 2 stroke that can be lifted out and ground run with umbilical connections to the 432.. Then you have the latter incarnation with a straight 6 Cummins.

    There is a two stroke forum, some time ago one of the HMV forum members from Tazmania with a 432 power pack wrote that he posted on there.

    Have you any pictures of the brake units?

    Most Bedford diesels smoke on start up, any fuel injection repair company should be able to test the parts. Check the Air filter element is clean first.

    Vacuum wipers go their own way

    There was an advert on this forum in vehicles posted is Sept last year by bigwill.

    I think that 432 is still available at the paint ball company near Durham that closed down.

    Not as rare as the Forum member looking for a QL Tipper tailgate. CAV/Simms Control boxes are getting difficult to find.

    You have to get lucky sometime. It is showroom condition, great job.

    Split and banjo axles have a different hub design to accommodate different halfshaft designs, there is a different design hub also for the non driven 6x4 variant. To fit twin wheels on the front they simply used the twin nut arrangement of the rear wheels the same as a Ford Sussex design.

    Thank you for the information. Going back in the dark box.

    If you look at Austin K2 parts for sale in the Clasiffied section, there is a picture of an Austin front I beam axle, it is the same style as a GMC 6x4.

    Yes thank you.You should have a reply. Regards John

    After a lot of looking I found what I was looking for, but there is only one if that is any good to you.
  25. john1950
    You can even see the rest of the wheels. I wonder where the picture was taken?
