Got a question for you, or someone. I know little about M211/M135's but,
there is a 6x6 carcas sitting in a junk yard I frequent. It was for sure
duals on the rear axles, it for sure had no power divider and had two
seperate drive shafts to the rears. I bought the bed off of it years ago and
later sold it to someone with an M211 who said it was an M211 bed. The only
thing left on the frame other than the axles and air tank(s) is the stripped
cab. But this cab has 3 pedals such as an M35 would have. It also has some
pedals under the driver seat that would seem to be operated by pushing down
on them and maybe sliding them into a notch to lock them. I have asked
people in the past about the three pedals, everyone tells me it can't be and
M211 then but everything else on the the truck says it is. You have any
idea what thnis would be? The cab by the way is very nice if anyone is
looking for a cab, no rust damage that I could see, but then I have not been
there to visit the thing for several years now located in south east/central WI.

later,
