re: #264 wheat-dogghazi

Didn’t International use off-the-shelf parts from other manufacturers, like GM or Ford?

A lot of parts may carry over between brands. I don’t know about corn binder trucks. Years ago an outfit I worked for got several International Travel-alls (Pre Chevy Suburbans). They were very heavy and drove just like tanks. But they had one bad habit. If you were driving along at 55 MPH the vehicle would take an unexpected “hop” and you would find yourself driving down the adjoining lane. The Travel-alls spent more time in the dealers shop than on the road. Never could fix the problem. Got rid of them with less than 15 K miles. The most unsafe vehicle I have ever driven.

Also the gas tank filler hole is located in the right front fender just behind the wheel. Hard to gas up.
