Hi Kevin,
That's neat. I bought the truck on ebay. It was a Tri-County Rural Electric truck in Tioga County, PA before I got it. Would appreciate a copy of the invoice. I'm in the middle of an 8-year rebuild/restoration. See pictures at: http://www.imageevent.com/dad2nick
Wish you had posted this two weeks ago! As John said, we had the differentials out of the truck for inspection and new seals. The rear was in somewhat rough shape. Chipping on the carrier housing and pitting on the ring and pinion. We didn't see any signs of a locker, but we weren't looking for one so who knows? We put a new seal in it and I installed it in the front.
The front differential looked nearly new. Still wore clean primer on the carrier housing and only the slightest of pitting on the R&P, probably from sitting around the garage for two or three years. We put a new seal in it and I installed it in the rear. I was planning on putting a Lock-Rite in the rear at some point.
We should be able to jack up the front end and figure out if the differential has a locker, right?
