Raphael Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Hello, I have several WW2 truck front axles for trade with Universal Carrier parts, or sale. Can anyone help me identify them? They were removed from british trucks just after the war and stayed like that from that time. I am located in Caen, Normandy.

Cheers, Raphaël Hi Raphael, The two axles nearest to the camera look like Canadian CMP front axles. Cannot see enough detail of those at the back.

wildside Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 The two axles at the back are very very early cmp axles they look exactly the same as I had fitted in my 1941 canadian chevrolet field artillery tractor number 11 cab Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcspool Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 The two axles nearest to the camera look like Canadian CMP front axles. Indeed, the split differential axles are Ford Canada axles. HTH, Hanno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maurice Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 These banjo Axles are not CMP Chev . i have never seen the shock absorber links mounted directly to axle , and also never seen swivel point protection like on M8 /halftrack axles on a CMP axle .
