I'm not sure what to get, there seems to be a choice. My ex military 109 is described on the plate as a 3/4 ton gs truck but it has 1 ton springs and big drums; so which part numbers do I need? I need front and rear flexi hoses.
Part Number : RTC3353 BRAKE HOSE LWB REAR 1954-JUNE 80 I assume this one must be the rear pipe?
Part Number : 577681 BRAKE HOSE FRONT 109 ONE TON.
Or..
Part Number : RTC5903 BRAKE HOSE FRONT SERIES 3. UP TO JUNE
Which one?
577681 on the front and RTC3353 on the rear. Richard
Depends if it has extended spring hangers. The 1-ton had spring hangers with two holes in, and the shackle plates are longer, with a spacer bar in the upper holes. If it has these then it's a 1-ton and needs the 1-ton hoses as the axles are further away from the chassis. Otherwise you can use normal Series 3 LWB hoses.
If you're unsure, measure them and then go armed with the measurements when you get the new ones.
