How did that happen? Did U-Haul order trucks with special parts?
I always thought they used stock trucks. Weird.
Their contract with Ford for trucks was huge, they had their own specs. They had odd engine transmission combinations. Back in the late 80's early 90's, they used a 330LD engine with a 12" clutch and a Clark or New Process 5 speed that was only found in the U-Hauls. I know they have used a butane type freon in their A/C systems, ( flammable ), as I am told by a friend who has a U-Haul franchise and service garage.
