A running Mack endt 673 take out may be better then just replacing the crank they are some times on E bay. Your truck has every thing to swap it in. As what it's worth I paid $350 for a Mack bell housing a Mack water pump core is $100 a rebuilt water pump is $300 the water manifold and oil...
My first m211 transfer case would not shift in to six wheel drive in reverse . The mechanical adjustment needed more travel then what it had . You might jack up one front wheel and unhook the shaft on the transfer case and push or pull the shaft in or out it is spring loaded . The adjustment is...
The L shaped angles on the out side of the frame look correct for the cckw spring are 2 inch wide with center at 27 inches . m211 springs are 2 1/2 wide at 32 inch centers . didn't some CCKW trucks have the M-211 looking axles? interesting find .

These pictures if a disc parking brake on a 1943 White 666 .The disc is 14or 15 inches in diameter with two sets of pads . I would like to have this park brake on my M52a2
I would check the travel on your brake chambers from all the way in (foot off the pedal ) to all the way out (foot on the pedal ) If it uses type 30 chambers 2 inches of travel is the legal max .
