Looking through my 220 page Euclid book I have not been able to find a R25 factory designation. I find both R22 and R27 both of which were big sellers. I do find a 25FD rear dump of which 43 were made starting in 1944. They often used R designations in sales and marketing in order to identify rear dump. Please post a picture, and if known, the year of manufacture. The F stands for 15 to 25 tons. The D stands for diesel engine.

We had a Euclid pit truck, with the markings "R25", at a quarry I worked at in 1980. It was only a couple of years old back then. It worked alongside two R22 trucks at the quarry. However, I can not answer your question

My book has most if not all the Euclid machines built up to 1968. Many are one of a kind that were destroyed or modified into something else. If this one is newer than 1968 I would not find it. It does not have torque specs listed anyway so probably a moot point.
