That sure puts it straight,,, at least as to what the trucks are supposed to have according to "the book" unless "the book" has a misprint about the subject, or the book's intention was to replace 6453 trannies in multifuels with the 6352 upon rebuild or failure. But still, thank you for...

no need to thank me, but thank you .. it will take some time to dig those out, they are real pics on Kodak paper somewhere in a box in storage .. been meaning to go through them for awhile now and post them and many older ones starting in the 70's, including GMC M211's, M215's, M220's, etc...

that would be great, but all six of the M54A2C's in my old armor BN had the OD 6453. All of those had LDS power, except for two re-motored with mack 673's on purpose but kept their A2 tags.. We did have a pair of downspout M52A1's, yes with the 6453. None of the units M54A2C's were former...

I concur with you the direct tranny is better for multifuel work trucks.. I have 1967 and 1969 M51A2's with the direct-5th, and a couple others with OD... However, all of the multi's (and 673's) in my units during the 70's thru 90 had an OD-5th. .. I have to wonder if some of the post-1964...

yes, the starter pedal (and return spring) were at that hole . Thus, your truck is older than 1964 and was a gasser M51 in its prior life. You might now want to look for any casting numbers on your windshield hinges, U-joints, or rear axle hubs . If they end with R-1 or R-something else, you...

TWO spotting items jump out at me right away, things that most people overlook. Yes the others are correct you have what is now coined as a M51A2. However, there is likely more to the story with your truck which if true, means it is NOT a Kaiser/Jeep/AM General product. The style of lamp...
