What's up with that tailgate? Military didn't have them.........someone hacked it in?

You'd have to determine yourself if the work and cost would make sense. I'm not sure if there are any replica tubs for an M38A1.

Have you checked valve clearance? Common problem on these old engines is the valve seat wear due to unleaded fuel. Another good upgrade is the Pertronix pointless ignitor plate............does away with points and the constant adjustment from wear. It wouldn't hurt to do a compression test to...

I know I've seen them somewhere, and I believe Selectro made them. Can't find them anywhere now. Anybody have any leads? Thanks!

Not true! I put one in my deuce and love it. Steers fine just needs to roll before you steer ( same as any M35A2)

Do a compression test to rule out any mechanical disaster like a stuck or dropped valve

As has been mentioned try swapping wheels/tires or get them balanced ( spun not static). Also make sure alignment ( actually toe in) is correct. You want very slight toe in about 1/8"

I'm just south of Albany, near Catskill. I'd be more than happy to help. PM me for my cell #

Unless it's an M170 the "cross" is wrong so whatever

Def worth the money! No need to ever re adjust points, and it always runs smooth. One less maintenance item, only caveat is make sure ignition is always OFF when its not running.

I have the D turbo on mine so for the most parts it's quiet. BUT, when you're in the throttle deep and let off to shift you hear that " SSSSSSssssshhhhhh" as it spools down it's just so cool!

Ok, some minor updates. I made up a set of tailgate chains,unwound the winch cable, cleaned, lubed, and rewound the proper direction and installed the 4' leader chain and serviced the winch boxes. Acquired a set of 5 spare wheels and 1 brake drum, got a battery box and outside mirrors. Also...

And finally finished!

I had mine out too!

I believe the winch is the same, short bumpers are still available. I have not seen the center bumper/ winch mount. You may be better off finding a parts truck but they're hard to find ( winch trucks)

Ok, fixed a few things last couple of days: Last time I drove it ( sunday) noticed throttle was NOT opening up very much, was completely misadjusted. I rebent the link and adjusted it to get full throttle I also noticed the shifter flopping around like something was missing. I unscrewed the top...

All at once or over 3 months? Hahahahahaha!

I just messaged you
