A bfh is no joke ! Lol

I don't think anybody said not to buy it , just know what you are getting and what it would cost to make right , depends on what you want . There are a LOT of M37's around , I ALWAYS say BUY as MUCH truck as you can saves money in the long run .

187 , I got my seals at Memphis Equipment last year when I was at the convention in Huntsville . I Have a A3 so I changed everything over to the A2 setup , MUCH easier to repair over the CTIS seals . Not a bad job , once you burn off the air ring , I have lots of CTIS bearing if anybody needs...

VERY NICE Eagle4g63 , looks VERY good , bet you are glad that is behind you ! job well done .

I agree with Cobra 5 , probably a Civilian block , would explain the 12 volt conversion , if that's the case , it would bring the price down a LOT !

Looks to be the basic 12 volt conversion , all the Vent lines are gone , carb is from a civilian PW , figure in starter , generator , regulator , distributor , oil pump , gauges ? . Figure a wire harness , plus all sorts of bulbs . how is the sheet metal ? figure all this in the price as they say .

BURN IT OFF !!! , really , you just need to heat up the epoxy with a torch , I used a rosebud , and then use you basic BFH and give the air ring a few whacks , it will fall right off . Then I used a flap wheel to clean up the axle housing , good to go as they say . Then just get a plug for the...

Thanks , it was a lot of work ,and YES it feels great to have it done ! It was not to bad a job , and changing out the bearings and seals was not that big a deal once I got the secret on how to remove the CTIS ring , just got into the zone as they say , Plus you get to check every thing else...

Just finished a BIG TIME PM , removed the CTIS from the MV ,and replaced all the bearings and seals with A2 style , not a bad job , painted the under Carriage , brakes and WC's were like new ,just adjusted them up , did a LOF , fuel filter and finally installed my 395's that I have had for a...

Also bear in mind that the M37 uses a SINGLE circuit brake system , IMO , not a safe system for a Fire/Rescue department . We used to call it a 2vpump system , brake a line and you had MAYBE 2 pumps to get it stopped . If nothing else , update the truck to the 2 circuit MC , not a bad project ...

Lets see , busy week , removed all the drums and bearings , brakes & WC's like new , removed CTIS system, replaced seals , and bearings , adjusted brakes LOF , paint chassis while I was at it . Installed 395's all around , checked all fluids , good to go . BTW , CTIS system is a POS , who...

Just finished painting the under carriage and frame of the Deuce . Used a top of the line HVLP paint gun from Harbor Freight , LOL . I used Rapco 383 green . Just pressure washed the crap out of the frame and gave it a quick squirt of color . Came out good in spite of my painting efforts , must...

Bigger is always better ! Don't forget the windup ! LOL

Just finished a bearing and seal service on my MV. Not to bad a job , once you get rocking and rolling . Recommend the Big 8 PT. socket , makes it easier to adjust the bearings . I used GAA for the bearings and replaced the seals , and DO NOT forget the little cork , I used some Blue silicone on...

ouch , thanks NAPA !

I forget the ID sizes , but they are all straight hose . If they carry straight hose should be go to go . On line either Midwest Military or Vintage Power Wagons carry the hoses .

Welcome to the site from Lockport NY , One of the club members just picked up a 1028 . bob k

Any time the MV has gone through deep water , you need to service everything ! from changing the driveline fluids , to wheel bearings and complete brake inspection . If it was deep enough to get water in the brake MC boot , you were pretty deep . Off hand I would say the MC is junk , because it...

LOL , that's funny

Welcome to the site and now the "GREEN" addiction starts ! What is your location on the island ? Used to live in East Meadow , next to the park ,moved upstate about 25 years ago . I have only been back a few times since , island HAS changed a lot . You know there is LOTS of green stuff for sale...
