Hey there, I’m new to the forum so I hope I am in the right place. I just picked up a 1964 ford truck that has a dump bed on it but I am told it used to be a grain truck. I am sure I will have many more questions but for now I need to know what motor it has or is supposed to have. Vin is : F60AR540xxx
Thanks!

Hello Bill,
I too am new here, and could really use your help so I know exactly what year this truck is, and any other information on it.
Also if you happen to know the part number for the wheel cylinders, that would be great.

1965 N600 with 15,000 lbs. capacity rear axle could have 15" x 4" or 15" x 4 1/2" rear brakes.
The wheel cylinders are different (there are 4: 2 uppers / 2 lowers per side), so you'll need to determine which size the brake shoes are.
Hi there, Bill! I hope you are well! My 1957 F600 is shaping up nicely! I am doing some work on the rear brakes and I need to replace some of the coarse threaded, countersunk screws that secure the brake drum to the hub. The truck has the Eaton two speed rear end if that makes a difference. Any help you can provide in finding these little buggers would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks for all you do for us!
