    Im considering this, but if i do, will i be ridiculed and ostracized from rallys :^)

    I have a '54 M37, i want to actually use it some. I really dont want to risk tearing up the bed or having to even worry about it. In other trucks and 4x4's i've put bedliner in the beds (and often the cabs too, but not for this). If i put bed liner in the bed like line-x or rhino (actually...

    New Members Truck (m37) and some general questions

    A "down" shot to the battery compartment would be great now... Im focusing on getting it running and safe to drive, it will look like H3(( but i'll drive it. I certainly dont need the batteries sloshing around in there. Now its just an empty box with nothing but batteries..

    New Members Truck (m37) and some general questions

    so there is a filter IN the fuel tank, or one near it? it seems odd to put a common service item in a hard to reach place. I did go over there, i didnt see anything that showed what i was looking for. I'll probably need to link up with some m37 owners in Alabama here and get a first hand...

    M37 Fuel Pump

    Hello all, I am working on a 1954 M37 3/4 ton truck, we got it to sputter and run by pouring small amounts of gas into the carb, but cant seem to get any fuel to the lines.. I cant find the fuel pump on this thing, where should it be? it was cannibalized some, so it could be missing, but...
