Shade 24087 is what is considered correct for M37s. I prefer American Coatings paint available from Brent Mullins Jeep Parts.

Can you share the back story here? Movie rental deal?

The thin metal pieces under the bolts are called lock plates and indeed are intended to be bent up to prevent the bolts from backing out. You bend up the little ears to match the flats of the bolts.

Both the early and late bows (1st and 2nd generation) simply slide into holes on the top of the bed sides. You have to decide if you want 1G or 2G bows. The 1G are not economical to ship even motor freight, the bows are huge (8'x6'). In Texas, Red River Parts (New Boston) has those in stock...

Little FYI here, with the bows up, when loaded on a drop deck or gooseneck trailer, the FMTV/trailer is over 14' tall.

The manufacturer seems to think a M275 can haul a 36,000 lb trailer.

Only $90? Wow that is the cheapest thing I have ever heard of from the Cat dealer. It's kind of an inside joke with me, "what is the highest imaginable price for this widget" when I go to the counter.

I painted my D7-7M with 33070 and I consider it correct. Consider buying high quality flat enamel paint by American Coatings available from Brent Mullins Jeep Parts. This paint does far better in the elements than Gillespie paint.

There is no dash button that pops out on these trucks so you can demo your knowledge of the COLA test. Which is why most folks have no luck using these trucks for the CDL driving exam.

There was an extra bow push button in the bed. It was confusing me what it was for: what is a straight piece of spring steel with a dowel piece on each end for??? You have to horseshoe it to put in the tube.

After having Mark's LMTV with the 2nd gen top bows sitting next to mine with 1g, I am ready to put mine in the scrap. What a poorly dedigned system. Almost like it was an afterthought at S&S.

Is this one of the Ft Sam units? I was tempted to bite on those, but pricing some of the missing bits from my Deere dealer convinced me otherwise. Glad you were successful.

Please contact member here "b4thundr", he has an updated governor controller for sale. The stock setup is as you have found, completely unreliable. More info on your truck can be found by searching "SECM". I can tell you that the controller wiring and the 3 phase power wiring is completely...

Something I did not realize is that the steering wheel tilts and telescopes.

Flamed why? You are absolutely correct. Seems like you could connect the inlet and outlet lines of the dryer together to effect a "get home" workaround.

Here is how I did it on mine: Remove decontaminator bracket. Mark where the hoses go and remove. Remove the little screws that hold the cover on to the reservoir. Take the cover/pump assy into the workshop/kitchen table for repair.

Please buy your CARC substitute paint from Brent Mullins Jeep Parts. They have paint made by American Coatings and it is a perfect match for CARC. The Gillespie Coatings paint sold by others is entirely too glossy and has been for years.

Make sure the voltage regulator is extremely well grounded to the firewall.

After rebuilding my HPU, I left the decontaminator bracket (cover) off. The HPU reservoir promptly filled with rain water.

Should be listed on your GP paperwork.
