I know this is an old post but it is worth a try. My friend has an M37. Not sure what year. He states on the passenger side somewhere there are three holes for a bracket to attach to that holds a rectangle first aid kit to. Does anyone have a photo of this bracket set up and where can he buy...

Hi All. I'm posting this for a friend. He just picked up a 1976 Canadian CUCV and is looking for more info on the truck. It seems to be quite different than the later US versions. He says it has a gasoline Chevy 350 motor and 350 transmission and is full time four wheel drive. Any ideas where I...

The best thing to do is get the engine overhaul manual from Portrayal Press. I sell complete engine gasket sets, new made. I also sell the famous shop manual, M2 Halftrack Data Book. You can get a carb from Jeep-Dodge-GMC in Europe...

Hi all, We are at about one month away from the MVPA Convention in Pleasanton, California. I talked with Kevin and he suggested that myself and Don should host this years meeting. With that said I put in a request to for a room on Friday at 3 pm for 1 to 2 hours. I haven't heard back yet but...

Here is a photo of a combat wheel off my halftrack.

I have an M2A1 halftrack that I have been slowly restoring and have helped my buddy Don restore his M3 halftrack. There are a lot of parts now that are very difficult to find. If you are looking for a turn key M16 halftrack that is all original and complete I think that price is good. I'm not...

The halftrack axle has a specific gear ratio and tire size, 8.25x20, so when it is engaged it matches the speed of the tracks. Using a different front axle or the more common 9.00X20 tires will cause binding on the drive train.

Well Murphy found me when it was time to unload the tracks. The two sites that I was told to use were unsutible and unsafe. I had planned to use a big commercial rollback but all the towing companies in the area that had them were busy several days out moving construction equipment. I ended up...

I found it and when I asked the owner if he would sell it right off he said I could never afford it. He must think it is gold plated or something. It looked like there was a fire under the dash at some point. Oh well, It does have some nice parts on it though. Steve A.

It's that time of year again and this years theme is ARMOR! With that being said I would like to organize as many halftracks as possible at this years event. I've been talking to John Neuenberg for the past year or so on this topic and am very excited about the possibility of having 10 or more...

Just want to thank everyone who purchased these bolts and help make this a reality. All 50,000 bolts are now spoken for. I have one more major ship out this Monday and a few other orders pending. Thank you, Steve A.

Made more progress on Don's halftrack. The brakes are all bled and work! He only had a few leaks. Some fitting were not tight. Today we moved his track back into building 1 in front of mine to start putting the track suspension back together. We got the rear idler hubs back on and all greased...

GOOD NEWS!!!! Just got word that the armor bolts arrived in Seattle, WA today. That means I will have them sometime next week. That means I will start shipping on the 18th of March. For those who haven't ordered any and want some you can email me and I will send payment info. The bolts are...

HERE IS THE NEWS WE'VE BEEN WAITING FOR. I got a price quote in to manufacture new bolts. I asked quotes for the following sizes 3/4", 1" and 1-1/4". For the most part prices are about the same for all at $.20 cents a piece. I added just a little for my shipping cost to me and my troubles. So...

Dirt, WOW![thumbzup] You have done an outstanding job. It gives me a better idea on what to expect when I tear mine down. I'm working with Don G. getting his M3 back into shape. I've learned a lot working on his so when I get mine bake in my shop I will know what to do. Isn't that how it's...
