ERF-NGC-European:
Just bumping this up to chime with the general Crusader thread that’s at the top of the page now, with reference to my question regarding any examples of 6x4 Crusaders with 9-sp rather than 15-sp Fuller 'boxes.
I notice that I never followed this up on this thread. Just to cross-ref with the main Crusader thread, then: DEANB posted an article which showed that RHD/LHD 6x4 Crusaders in the British military were fitted with 15-sp Fullers if they were on heavy work (tank-transporters etc), but were fitted with 9-sp Fullers if ordered for lighter duties. ie there are probably quite a number of 6x4s with RT(0) 9505(A)s floating about!
Oddly enough, I actually have that article filed away but had never noticed the closing paragraphs with this info. Here’s the link to the thread page with the article:
