SWB CCKW WITH OPEN CAB

Post by joel gopan »

Had the fuel tanks with dual large filler necks. Used the 4" Gas Cap. Some early CCKWs that have been converted to open cab, retained the early small neck fuel tank. The Small neck fill pipe will interfere with the tubing of the Right Rear M-36 mount, and requires that that M-36 bracket be shortened a few inches.

Apparantly the SWB with Dual filler pipes did not have Amber reflectors on the front of the Fuel Tank Bracket.
