The K-series COE trucks replaced the previous D-series COEs. The cab was basically the same as before but there were improvements. The smaller K-5COE models were given the split grille arrangement previously used on the larger D-series COEs. The 1½-2 ton K-5COE and 2-speed axle KS-5COE replaced the D-300 and DS-300. The GVW rating was increased from 13,200 lb in the D-300 series to 14,000 in the K-5COE. The 81-hp HD-232A engine was replaced by the 93-hp Green Diamond GRD-233.
