Need to look for your Chassis number(drivers side frame rail, somewhere close to the front spring hanger) May not be very deeply stamped and may be covered in grease/grim. Once you have that number(if your Data plate is there, that same number should be on it) (If they do not match, you have an issue) go to this page: http://content.wisconsinhistory.org/cdm ... 529/rec/12 click on the date then on the drop down For 1940-1946 or for 1947-1949

i just got the truck from a friend.he said it ran great last summer when he parked it for the winter and when he went to start it this summer it would'nt turn over,like it was stuck.he pulled the head off and said there was no rust in the cylinders. we tried to turn it over with a pry bar on the fly wheel but it would not move.any help?

Out of gear, right? Block those wheels.
Sometimes a stuck accessory like a generator or waterpump will fool you. Loosen fan belt after you try to rotate engine with socket on generator. Try rocking generator pulley back and forth with your other hand putting tension on belt.
Nothing?
If cylinder head is off it can't hurt to soak cylinders with oil. 50-50 atf and acetone works good. Kroil works better but it's mail order.
CB will have more ideas.
When you try to crank with starter what happens?

ya,tried all of that.i looked up into the bellhousing and there is nothing near the flywheel or the pressure plate.it has us baffled.i'll get the truck home tomorrow and pull the engine.he said he used to drive it around the yard and it ran sweet!.hope it's nothing to bad. i would love to get it running.i want to make it 4 wheel drive.i think i found a place to get bearings if i need to. i think it's a grd 233.sound right?

I had a GRD motor that was stuck, valves stems were stuck in the the guides, a little WD and a few light taps, motor was good as new, give your valve train a look see too,

Bless these relatively simple motors. And Bless all the Knowledge on this forum! If it ran last year and you get everything unstuck, it Will run this year. Still has coolant in it and Oil?

Kroil has my vote as far as un-sticking things . Ain't nothing like getting one of these things going again .

are there any free online shop manuals to down load? some of those manuals are expensive
