Ah, yes. the Iltis... Loved and hated by many. Is that one of Dave's? Jess

That is the rifle holder. Butt goes in the base and the clip holds the wood under the barrel. Probably would have been used for an FNC1 in the day. Other weapons mounts found on some trucks were the SMG clips in the dash to hold the Inglis C1 9mm SMG. Its great that some of this stuff is...

Case tractor power shuttles use/used a Case proprietory fluid labelled TCH, then Hytran and Hytran Ultra. No idea who the actual manufacturer is for this product. I have a '68 Case 580CK with the power shuttle and only use Hytran Ultra. After a change to Ultra, the shuttle clutches seemed to...

As far as I know they are the same and interchangeable. I have purchased multiples of NOS fenders in the past and did not have any issues mounting them. Jess

One of the types that could be used goes by the trade name Ensolite. Pricey. As an alternative, you could try this listed by a SS member. Its similar to the original material and could be cut to fit. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?137314-Foam-Adhesive-Backed-Panels

When I get home, I will try to post a pic of a CDN truck circa mid '70s. Canadian trucks were originally marked with the CAR/ CFR on the doors, never on the hood. If your is a US truck, results will differ. The stamp should be visible, somewhere on the front of the frame where it was easy to...

Not to take this thread too far off topic, the numbers I have seen on other Canadian SMP vehicles were stamped in 1/2" numbers, Year and number eg 56- 23456. It could be that larger stamps were used for your deuce. It would be interesting to confirm where these numbers are on the early CDN...

You could try asking one of the Canadian members here to confirm the location of the CAR/CFR number. Stan Leschert and M1010Plowboy may have seen these stampings on their trucks. I don't have serial number information on the old CDN deuces but somebody will. You could also post on the Maple...

I regularly visit the yard that had that contract. They were scrapping various versions of the M113 and I had tried to get some wiring harness, lights, switches and data plates but the owner was very clear about the terms of the contract. Nothing was to be sold. All was cut up, destroyed and...

Metal Magnet, your CDN deuce will have the CAR number stamped on the top of the drivers side frame rail between the bumper and grill. It should be Year and registration number XX-XXXX. Unfortunately, none of the records survived the disposal of these trucks unlike some that were added to the...

Grandbaby Birds.... A few weeks and they will have flown the coup if they are like out here. I have a couple of nest around the property and am always happy to see them every year. This year, they decided that my stack of scaffold frames leaning against the shop was as available, so now there...

This might be of value to you. The corrosion caused by water and the dissimilar metals is a common problem. Thanks to Paul Mierop for all the useful information in the link... http://imageevent.com/moosecreekmaple/lu4winch Jess

We should have seen where this thread was going to end up....

Yes, it is Brian Asbury and Marc has posted with parts too. Every forum has different rules about dealers so I did not post his particulars. There is also a few guys on the MLU forum that are into post WW2 vehicles. I have some parts on the way from Brian this week. I am doing brakes, the...

Thanks, I have been on a long quest for either parts to repair or replace the Acme pto idler as its the only part difference from the US pto. It was in aid of another friend in Churchill Manitoba who had a transmission failure and broke a tooth on the Acme pto. After a lengthy and fruitless...

The helical gear fits the transmission 3rd gear IIRC, the other gear on the US pto and the Acme pto is square cut and runs to the slider gear in the pto. The Chelsea would have a different design, Not being familiar with the Chelsea S or seeing an exploded view makes me wonder how it is...

Can you post a couple of pics of your Chelsea PTO, if its fitted on the Acme T98 it would give anyone with an M37CDN another alternative to the Acme pto. I have a spare Acme T98 and Acme pto on the floor if you still need to confirm what yours is. Let me know here or by PM. Jess

I have a couple of different brand welders and am happy with what I can do with them. Because of cost, I tried an odd shore brand plasma and was not happy with it. After a lot of research, I ended up buying the Hypertherm Powermax 45 and can't be happier. Lincoln had brought out the Tomahawk...

I've used this information to troubleshoot my gauges before and found it useful... http://www.dodgepowerwagon.com/best/m37_gauge_resistance.php Jess

This is the idler gear from an ACME pto. The helical gear mates to your transmission. Somewhere I have pics of the Acme T98 also, but have to look if its still of interest to you. The Chelsea pto has the same helical gear that fits into the transmission. I think the Jeep M trucks have a...
