Sounds like a Duplex. 2 sticks? Got picture of shift plate? Could be 9-speed (overdrive) or 10-speed (direct). Very common behind a 673T. On the gearcase at the front of the engine, you should see numbers like "T673" or some variation (see below). Those numbers can help identify the specific variant of the engine. This one says "T673C", indicating the 250HP version, the ENDT-673C. Also, there could be a tag on the engine that shows the actual HP rating. On the pump, maybe? Can't remember. R611T...The "611" indicates that it came with a ENDT-673 Thermodyne of some version. The "T", if you didn't already know, indicates that it was a single-screw Tractor. "ST" would have been the tandem-axle version. We need more pictures! We love pictures!

Another year older and deeper in debt, Huh Jo-Jo?!

The tag is the finishing touch...

Rats...sharp tails...

Have seen guys change the front tires right on the truck with a bar. Not even remove the rim from the spindle. Spindle makes a pretty good pivot. Seen the starting fluid thing done many times. Not something the OSHA folks would approve of!

I can't wait to see the next episode of "As the Fuel Pump Turns". LOL!

Ever figure out anything on this???

Checking birthdays every day if I can remember to. Lots of folks who have not been on here in YEARS. Weird thing is how many have a "joined" date and a "last visit" date that are the same. Seems odd to take the time to join and then NEVER come back. Like I said...weird.

I like what you have there. Love the old steel-dash trucks.

Rats...they got sharp tails.

I like that killer attack dog guarding you there.

Maybe! But, then again... LOL! R models do look a little "narrow in the tire". Always have. The ones with wider fronts do fill up the fenders better. Purely an aesthetic thing, for sure. Just to keep you miserable, look for an Accuride 32052225 or equivalent. That's a 22.5" X 9.00" W/5.00" Offset "Heavy Load Application" demountable rim (code for "Dayton").

Happy Birthday to DBGraves and tippi98custom. Hope you both have great days.

Wish I could read the numbers! Part numbers that were on my FA535 front axle.

Still no good...

Have a great one, Bob!!!

So, maybe GNDN... Goes Nowhere. Does Nothing.

Yep. Had them side-by-side on mine for a while. It was almost like they MEANT for that to work, wasn't it?

That's about the luck I have, too!

You may have a point there. He might just have to swap the spiders. The hub and drum may not even need to come off. But, I do not know for sure. Hell, I'm just happy when somebody asks a question I know a little about! Most of the guys on here know so much that I feel too dumb to answer most of the questions! Sure do miss Glenn. He could have told exactly what was needed.

Yes, you would need a set of small spiders. I'm sure the junk yards are full of them. Maybe even some new sources still out there. Some were made by Kelsey-Hayes, some by Gunite. Not sure who all made them. I know Accuride USED to sell new ones, but I do not know if they still do. I'm sure some of these guys will have the part numbers for the hubs and related parts (brake drums, bearings, etc.). Probably somebody on here wanting rid of some 'cause they put Budds or Alcoas on one. Might even be somebody looking for the "big" ones you have. Incidentally, I had mine backwards in my first post. The 10.00-20 tube types were on the front and the 11.00-22.5 tubeless were on the back. Brain slipped there for a minute. When I got it, there was a mix of both types on the rear. But I found a good deal on a bunch of recaps and made the rear more uniform. The fronts were pretty good, so I never messed with them.

If memory serves!!!! If not, somebody will correct me!!! Small spider takes 20" tube type and 22.5" tubeless tires. Large spider takes 22" tube type and 24.5" tubeless tires. So, 20" and 22.5" are interchangeable. 22" and 24.5" are interchangeable. To change between those 2 groups requires different spider. I had 20" tube type on the rear of mine, and 22.5" tubeless in the front. Those were interchangeable.

I believe there are 2 different styles. One has 3 bolts and the other is like Mecho is describing (one bolt and a key). Both have a splined bore on the other end to accept the P/S pump shaft, IIRC. Here is one example... And here is another style... Part "B" in the image... Both the part numbers in the list I posted still pull up on Google from various sources. So, I believe the numbers are still good.

Agreed.

This one's a little easier to see...
