Bill,
Thanks for the heads up. I did see the big truck parts manual, but was not sure that was exactly correct.
I picked up the truck today. pretty much as advertised. The PO owned a auto shop and bought the truck 20 years ago for "cheap storage" He replaced the Allison transmission with a new Jasper. He has only put 700 miles on it in the last 20 years. The brakes leak, at least the left rear. The power steering leaks. The radiator core is shot, but he included a Hummer radiator that might work.
And so starts the rolling rebuild.

Bill,
I am very new to this, so I want to make sure I am reading these manuals correctly. I am reading the warranty plate to say axle 64M, not 44M. If that is correct, according to the excerpts of the manuals that you posted I should have the 15M rear axle, not 13M, same Rockwell (Timken) gears though. Am I reading that correctly. I want to make sure as I start to order parts.
Next question: For the front wheel cylinder rebuild kits, it looks like their could either be 14" or 15" front brakes (and the wheel cylinders are different). Is there a way to determine that before I pull the drum and measure?

1975 C600 with 7,000 lbs. capacity front axle could have 15" x 3" or 15" x 3 1/2" or 16" x 2 1/2" front brakes. Need to know which size in order to look up the brake parts.

64 = Rockwell (Timken) model F-106 Single Speed Rear Axle / 6.80-1 / 15,000 lbs. Rear Axle Capacity.
64 same ratio as 44, but it's a different rear axle. F-106 rear axle parts list is # 95

Welcome to FTE
N75 = LN750 (gas).
F = 391 4V FT Engine.
V = Kentucky Truck Assembly Plant.
O25193 = 1977.
VIN doesn't tell you very much.
For further info, post all the codes stamped on the Warranty Plate, riveted to the left door face below the latch.

I've just gotten a Series 9000 tractor. It's vin is U91WVHD5627 with a 9E exterior, a 23 DSO, a 186 WB, a U914 type, DZ8 body, FL trans and a GJP axle. Can somebody give me some more info? The only thing I've been able to find so far is it's a U9000 (duh- since it says that on the hood!) and was made in Louisville. I'm pretty sure it's a Cummins in her, but would really like to know more for parts obtaining purposes.
In this thread, the listings for axles appear to start with numbers, but this one is clearly a "G". I've got a "6" in the wheelbase and there's a distinct hook of the "G" as the first digit in the axle. and it's also not closed as the "6" is.
