    Upgrade complete

    I'm finding the new layout to be much more time-consuming for the type of browsing I do. The older "activity" page was much easier to scan for threads I found interesting. The new layout requires actual reading as opposed to a quick scan and after clicking on show more at the bottom, if you...

    yokes?

    They are called companion flanges and I get mine from John at Midwest Military. You should also get a Speedi-Sleeve for each one. The sleeves are hardened steel which will be much more wear resistant than the metal in the flanges. Make sure you get the proper flanges as there are 2 different...

    Broken Shifter

    8th Group had the yellow nose, my truck has 8th Group markings. As for the markings, the majority of GT photos I've seen have been white well into the early 70's. While black may have been the policy, from what I see in historical photos, white was in use for along time afterwards. IIRC, the...

    Broken Shifter

    This is the part that clamps onto the the round stud coming up from the tranny. Easy enough to take off, undo the nut, slide out the bolt, spread the casting slightly and pull up and off.

    Broken Shifter

    Last Sunday on the way home from the Hartford Vet parade, the shifter in my M37 broke off at the floor. My first question is, has anyone ever heard of that happening? To date, no one has including John at Midwest. The part that broke was the transmission upper shift lever, that attaches to the...

    Awww, I was looking forward to getting to KMart early and then wondering where everyone else was!!!:popcorn: We meet up on the back side (along Rt 3) behind the Ruby Tuesday. Best to go down 372 to the intersection, take the left and use the 1st left into the plaza. The entrance off of 372 is...

    Core plug issues-question

    Be sure you have the correct low pressure radiator cap, I was told that in no uncertain terms when I bought my truck last year.

    My Guntruck build.

    I read or heard that some officers complained about the black trucks. The answer was that the "book" specified that they be painted OD which is a blend of yellow and black. The "book" supposedly didn't give an exact formula, so the guntrucks, while appearing black, actually had a little bit of...

    Heating the M37

    The stock fender mounted hot water heater should do just fine. Mine will put out more heat than I'll ever want and I like it warm. The arctic heater is way too much and I don't like the idea that it runs on gasoline.
