Anyone ever run the ones from SSDieselSupply.com? Model SSD-070. $80 for a set.

Well I picked up the 1009 today and I was not very happy. One of the county maintenance men thought they needed the pintle hitch so he torched it off. I looked at it a couple of weeks ago and it was there. After a lot of discussion, they were very nice and made it up to me but now I need a...

I am in Alabama and don't really need the heater and I have never had a water in fuel problem so that is why I was going to ditch the bowl and try an easier to get spin on. Do you know if the heads will accept other filters?

When I pick up my M1009 next week I plan to fully service the truck. As part of this I would like to go ahead and replace the mil spec fuel filter with a spin on type. I read all the threads about the NAPA base but I like the Racor 460 due to the vent and hand pump. My question is this: Do...

My wife is actually out of town on business and won't be home until Friday. I was going to surprise her with the new purchase but I have 7 and 9 year old girls; it took them about 5 seconds on Skype to let the cat out of the bag. Wife seemed OK but we will see..................

Whether it has 106k or 6k the thing is mine now! :lol: I have a lot of reading in my future but it's good to be part of the CUCV crowd! I look forward to getting to know you guys, and yes, I know how to use the search function at the top of the page.

Yeah, I don't have one either, and the price is the reason. I don't really need one but that has never stopped me from purchasing something OD:). I always watch GL and other sources and saw them sell pretty high and I was just curious if there was some super secret use for these that I was...

Are you using them to transport water, fuel,etc.? I have looked at several and just noticed the high prices and was curious.

I didn't want to hijack the thread about rebuilding the M149A2 but I do have a quick question. What are your uses for these trailers? I notice they seem to sell pretty high on GL no matter the condition. Just wondering.

I actually believe the 6000 miles. When I looked it over, it was almost perfect. Been owned by a police department for several years and they said that they only put about 500 miles on it. I could have got screwed but for $2500 I am happy. A rough 1009 sold last week at redstone for closer to...

I hunted for 2 years until I found the one I wanted for the price I wanted. I know that I am sick, just ask my wife.:smile:

I finally found an M1009:). I have looked at several, both private seller and GL but I found this one on GovDeals. It is a 1985 with 6k miles. I went and looked at it last week in Tennessee. No rust issues and everything works except the glow plugs. I will have to diagnose the problem once...

Tank is clean. I took it to work and one of our wonderful contractors took care of it. It has been cleaned on the inside and sandblasted and primed on the outside. It will get a couple of coats of gray industrial enamel tomorrow and it will be ready to go. Sometimes it is good to work for...

I'll get you some tomorrow. The silver paint looks like crap but the tank is solid; I'm thinking OD green as its new color! It looks like I have a lot of work ahead of me: somehow clean the inside and wirebrush, clean, prime and paint the exterior but when I'm done it should last me forever.

I'm not sure I can get in there to scrub. The 6" flange is close to the end. The tank is really solid, about 1/4" wall. He bought it surplus from the government years ago! It is actually a pressure vessel because the heads are domed. The ASME tag is gone but the bracket is still there. The...

I lucked up and found a guy that was retiring and closing down his garage that he had for about 30 years. I got his 600 gallon oil storage tank that I want to use in my WMO system for the clean oil but it has about 6 inches of crud in the bottom. The tank is on approximately 2 foot legs and...

Wreckerman - you got a link to the pumps you are talking about? I see the GPI pumps that mount on top of a fuel tank. Is that what you are talking about?

I'm not really sure because I didn't get out and walk it over. It is sandwiched between a couple of other cars and it is black. Sorry, if we go back in the next couple of weeks I will ask a price and get y'all some pictures. I forgot that my phone has a camera. aua

Guys I don't know about the pricing. I just heard him price a piece of steel to somebody one day at 30 cents/lb and that was about 6 six months ago. Like I said, I am in no way affiliated, just wanted to pass it along to the M37 enthusiasts. My Dad and I had cleaned up around the farm and...

I saw an M37 yesterday at the scrap yard in Russellville, Alabama. Didn't have my camera and the guy who prices trucks was not there. I imagine it could be bought for 30 cents a pound as that is how they sell most things. The number is (256) 332-9400. I know nothing about M37s and I am in no...
