    The manual I was looking for, I cannot find it. I scanned it onto a CD , but I have looked and looked .

     

    The manual is the 1940 manual that MCC put together for all the military models . The book includes stuff like suspension spring dimensions

     

    Thanks Mike sorry if I am asking all the time but

    Without help I could not continue the restoration

    Thx for every thing

  7. When it comes time to work on your motor, be very careful when removing the coolant side cover. The old bolts are extremely fragile and heads snap off if you look at them too harshly . I t may be feasible to drill out the remains and tap to the next size up. BTW the bolts are 6mm nominal OD . You do know that these engines have metric threads in them ????

     

    Hi Mike I have already tried to get them out but all snapped

    Except 2 even I heated them with the Berner still they

    Snapped the for the advice. Mike do you any one that have a cs8 compressed I need the donations for the battery box

    Under the driver side Nicolas Sawyer send me some good photos I wold like to say big thanks, but I need some measurements pls any one have is appriciatod.

    Can you check the diameter of the king pins ? I think it is .925" , this is a unusual size. I believe that some 1950's Chevrolet trucks had the same size king pins .

     

    Hi Mike the narrow part off the kingpin is 23.1 mm

    The thick side is 29 mm

    On the box there is cv 11/40

    Mike John walker had king pins sett for sale for the cs8

    If you need his address I have he is a very helpful guy

  9. I just moved the chassis over to the driveway today. I am removing the engine and axles and taking the chassis to be sandblasted . I will measure the panel for you when I remove it . There is also a panel on the passenger side , this panel is shaped to go around the oil filter .

     

    BTW I noticed the front axle wheel track or width is quite a bit wider that the rear axle track . I wonder why the designers or the WD did that ?

     

    Mike I think all the British ww2 veichel where like that

    As Bedford , Austin the front wider then the rear maybe

    For stability the Mike

  10. Pics .....................The engine is standard bore size . Some bore wear is evident . I do have a set of new pistons so I might go the whole rebuild ? We will see .

     

    Mike I wish I lived near I can give you a hand , if it will be comfortable for you I need the measurement for the long tool box after the passinger foot well out of the petrol tank

    When you are comfortable the.
