Re: CUCV axle ratio?

208s are a chain driven T/C, 205s are a all gear driven T/C and considerd HD and nearly bullet proof within reason.

As for the Trac Loc in the front - If you had a HD in the VIN vs GD (i.e 1GBHD vs 1GCGD) you will most likely have a TracLoc which would also have come from the factory with a THM400/NP205 T/C, If you run across one with a 208 it was most likely swapped in later and is not common by any means. The ones to look for are the Contact Maintenance M1031s they even have a PTO on the side of the NP205 T/C.

Some of the Dooley Conversions done on a M1008 or vanilla 1028 shelter carrier could have a 208 but most likely does not have a TracLoc.

My unit converted 4 to duallys in the mid 80s to support the TRC-170V3 Troposcatter Microwave Communication System (in a S-250 shelter)
