john1950 Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Dodge/ Renault Commando vehicles had Perkins T6354 with 5 a speed O/drive gearbox, Commer Maxiloads had the same gearbox. They also fitted an Eaton 2 speed rear axle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grisu Posted April 20, 2019 Author Share Posted April 20, 2019 @all: Thanks for your replies. I am very excited about this vehicle, this will become a one of a kind expedition truck @Robin: thanks for your offer, leaf springs and fenders are in good conditions, no need for now, car has just 45k KM, no hard off road usage in it's life @John: do you have some details on the Dodge/Renault commando vehicles or the gear box type/manufacturer? @ Administrator: what would be the right section to move to? There is no French vehicle section Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john1950 Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Its a long time ago I looked after 3 of them OTY 506 R was one of them,s reg number. Dennis and Seddon used the Perkins power unit also there were some International bonneted tractor units with a similar drivetrain. Some of the gearboxes were Turners. I cannot remember if the Dodge and Commer used a Roots Group g/box Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
