In 1964 I bought a 54 ford f600, with a knaphide grain bed on it. the feed store I got it from wore out the original motor, and had put a later 292 in it. by 79 I had worn out the 292, and was wanting to use it to move my family from Illinois to washington. I put a crate 312 in it, 6 new 20" tires, loaded it up and headed for Washington. In Mound City Iowa, the 2 speed quit, I opened up the plate on the 2 spd and found that a small fiber pin in the drive had sheared. I drove the old pin pieces out with a drift pin, made a new pin frim a hickory claw hammer handle, tapped it in place and took off for Washington, that was the fall of 79. My dad and I used it for years, for a dump truck, and wood hauler, also pulled an equipmunt trailer with Dad"s 450 case dozer on it. Dad done coustom dozing here in the Graham area. Iloaned the truck to a cousin of mine, and he managed to throw the rods out of the 312, and I had to tow it home. I sold it for scrap in 89, and the hickory pin was still in the 2 spd.
