Looking to de-code the glove box id tag for a 59 T-800.

All info will be appreciated.

See attached photo

 

Are you parting it out or building it? That's a rare beast.

 

Restore it and Work it some. Haven't driven a 2-stick in 30 years. Even though it's only a 2-way split in the highway gears, the 332 will sound good with dual exhaust.
Any ideas of the spec tag?

 

T series is an F series with tandem rear axles.

T80 = T800.

F = 332 4V

9 = 1959.

U = Louisville KY Assembly Plant.

33713 = 1959 Numerical Sequence of Assembly, the trucks specific serial number.

175" Wheelbase.

R = Red.

T82F = T800 w/hydraulic brakes, 43,000 lbs. GVWR

27D = Assembled April (D) 27, 1959.

QK: Q = Spicer model 5831-B 3 Speed Transmission / K = Clark model 265V 5 Speed Direct.

16 = 8.60-1 ratio; T-800 = Eaton model 34MF forward rear axle; Eaton model 34MR rear rear axle. Both: 34,000 lbs. Rear Axle Capacity.

43,000 lbs. Gross Vehicle Weight Rating.

187 net HP @ 3,600 RPM

 

Hey Thanks there Number Dummy. No tag on the main trans, illegible on the power divider. 265V, and an 8.60 rear....
