Federal Truck




Federal Trucks in Australia

The Federal truck, as it was after World War 2, was the outcome of thirty-eight years' experience of building trucks
for the varied needs of freight and passenger vehicle operators the world over. There were four basic models
manufactured, each of which was available under a different model number with a two-speed back axle which increased
its payload slightly. There were three optional wheelbases for the three bigger models and four for the smaller model.
Thus all operators had a wide range from which to choose the most suitable vehicle for their class of work. For this
review we will describe the model CM-80 4 ton truck,
and the model CM-90 4.5 ton truck which was fitted with the two-speed back axle.

The trucks were available with either petrol or diesel engines, which were of Hercules manufacture. Of very solid
construction, these engines featured a fully balanced crankshaft running in seven bronze-backed babbit metal
main bearings, the big-end bearings being of the same construction. The side valves were of a then-new type of
heat resistant alloy and were operated by high lift cams, which, in conjunction with large, individual porting gave
very good breathing. Heavy duty aluminium alloy pistons coped readily with the powerful power strokes from the
high compression combustion chambers. The water jackets were along the full length of the cylinders and provided
adequate cooling under the most extreme conditions.

White 1/2 track



The M2 was initially conceived as an artillery tractor, with only space for the gun crew. Thus the M3 was created in late 1940, with a longer body
in order to accommodate a full platoon of thirteen riflemen and their equipment. The access was performed through the back door,
and the galley part of the hull didn't incorporate an ammunition hold. It was simplified for mass production, but the wheelbase and other
general characteristics remains unchanged. The M3 was produced by the Autocar Company, Diamond T Motor Company and the
White Company until the end of the war. It was, at first, fitted with the reliable White 160 Ax 386 cu in (3660 cc) engine, a gasoline
six cylinder with a compression ratio of 6:3:1 and a power to weight ratio of 15.8 hp/ton. But a more powerful array of IHC engines became
available, and many later versions were remotorized until the end of the war

Mack built several armoured cars based on their 2 wheel drive AB truck chassis.
They were mostly used for recruiting, parades and public relations.
They were restricted in their off road use by their weight and 2wd
