RE: how tight rear hub I have been in and out of a persistantly hot hub 7 times in the last month. Finally new bearings and races were installed. Packed, new seals, tightened and backed off according to specs, outer nut torqued and assembled correctly. Still after a 10 mile run at moderate...

Made it home fine. Only after a wheel seal replacement with help from Opie, DaveP and Citizen Soldier. Thanks guys again. Not so for some poor vacationer though on M-115, put thier truck and trailer into the swamp halfway between Cadillac and Claire. The south bound traffic was bumper to bumper...

Any pictures of a remote vent/reservior? Are there transparent type remote reseviors which makes a quick check to the fluid level possible with out having to take off the floor plate get, 3 wrenches out and then make sure no debris gets into the thing while you are checking it? You have to...

Maxim will be there.... barring any unforeseen difficulties..... on the 15th...

After reading and following this excellent article about front bearing and boot replacement I need to replace some bearings/seals too. I got to the inner seals and retainers, and bent up two sets of seal removers trying to get the inner seals and retainers out. Banshee35 says it is possible to...

I have had the in tank pump go out and floored at the over $400 for a replacement. I went to Auto Value and they found a Carter 24 volt fuel pump that matched the per gallons per hour needs that were similar to the in tank pump. I regret I do not have the model number but they got it from the...

The one I use is good for small parts. It would take forever to do any project of any size. I have resorted to the twisted wire wheel on a side grinder. It works well and takes rust right off. Be warned however, if you use a twisted wheel, wear eye and hand and arm protection. The wire will...

I am using it right now and it seems to be great. It is forgiving for sags and runs, sticks to everything, covers well, and I have put Gillespie over it and it level well and hides a multitude of sins (but not all). I mix it 4 :1 in my cheepie HVLP and you have to tweek it some your...

Ya know, there is nothing like a M-37. AND...yours is green...welcome to the fold.

Nice. And the dash!

I know this has been talked about before. I have used a external muffler when I go on long runs just to knock down the noise fatigue. The muffler goes on a off in a couple of minutes and the straight stack can be installed with no modifications. I just needed to weld a small circular flange on...

Mine is a very good runner. When the in tank pump went out, the symptoms were very hard starting and a slight loss of power.

I used the h1crwchf method described several years ago when replacing a bad brake cylinder. I replaced the bearing seals when doing the repack as a precaution as the whole mess is apart anyway. I made my little corks from cork stock with no problems. The brake drum is heavy but not...

And....another one coming home to Michigan. Sweet looking. Hope there are more going to show up in Michigan. The bomb is maybe for ordnance?

I was given a book showing the 44th Infantry from landing at Cherbourg to the border of Austria , 1944-1945. Hundreds of photos in all aspects the Division's movement. Here are some of the pictures involving the need for a huge amount of trucks, jeeps, cranes, tanks and other associated...

Why did everybody insist on painting them yellow????

Funny this should come up. today I was attempting to remove the steering wheel off an M-37 for the same reason. The do the cab the right way. It would not come off. Actually cracked the wheel shaft nut with the puller. So after about 2 minutes of reviewing the situation, there are 3 bolts...

Nice looking truck and a driver to boot! Another one comes home to roost in Michgan.

just watchin for now...probably regret it later.

6TL I concure with Houdel. In the cold climates, the extra cranking and durability for vibration is a big plus. Also, I am in a remote area and not too many MV guys around so the peace of mind on quality, reliable, batteries beats out the cheapies. In my experiance, the heavy duty batteries...
