I ended up with a new rescue this month. Got my hands on pretty clean 52 M38a1. Looks like someone started to restore but stopped. All the major parts, very little rust and the engine is free. Won't know if she starts up till I can clean out the fuel system. Going to go through all the brakes...

So I've been thinking about add a turbo to my M36. Currently it doesnt have a turbo but I have all the stuff to add the turbo minus the exhaust. I currently have the side exhaust and was tying to see if I can keep the side exhaust instead of going to the stack. Is there a reason why all the...

I'm back to working on M36 after some time off of it since I broke the dog bone after the brakes failed. Till I get the parts in for that repair I'm started back up in the cab and found that none of my gauges are working not even the horn. I have a new front harness installed and got a new...

I ended up with a M109a3. I started on this project for some one else and things changed due to medical stuff on their end. So I ended up with it. Luckily it's in pretty good shape. Just changed all the wheel cylinder, wheel seals and re packed the bearings. She runs great just needs some tires...

In the process of rebuilding my brake system on my M36, I am on to rebuilding the air pack. Nothing came apart easily but it all did. The only part that didnt come apart was the pushrod bushing. So the question is this a replaceable part or is the whole pack trashed? Sent from my SM-G975U...

I'm getting ready to do the brakes on my M36. I have no idea what's in my lines since it's been sitting for so long. I was just looking at what I could do to clear out the lines so I don't have to go through so much DOT 5. Would compressed air work then bleed the system ? Sent from my SM-G975U...

I'm trying to clean out my system before I put my radiator, thermostat and water pump back in. I spray water in through coolant manifold and it flows and comes out a bolt hole the water pump was bolted up to. But when I spray water in the oil cooler side it just backs up and pours out. So I'm...

I've seen a lot of info on everyone with the FDC bypass with turbos but havent been able to find anything on the non turbo bypass. I know nothing changes on what it done for the bypass. But since I dont have a turbo I shouldn't have to worry about exhaust temps right? Sent from my SM-N950U...

I am planning on trying to started up my M36a2 this coming week since I was able to get it home last week. The engine hasn't been started in about 6 years or so. The oil seems to be good from what I can tell. No water in the oil from the spots I checked. The fuel is old but the tank doesn't have...

Does anyone have a diagram or picture of how the air lines on the inside firewall. Neither of the cabs I had had the airlines on them. So I have a bunch of lines and parts. I looked at the TM and that wasnt too helpful. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

I'm looking to find sources for the seals that go around around the glass on the inside of the frames for both the windshield and windows on the doors. When I took my glass out to clean the frames and repaint them the seals didn't survive. I found one place (oshkosh equipment supply) that has...

I'm sure its probably somewhere on here but the search function didn't help me too much. I'm in the process of repainting the cab and I was thinking about trying to redo the markings on the cluster. Any inputs on where to get a stencil made up for those? Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

I dont have access to my truck at the moment and trying to make a carrier to take the bed off my M36. So I'm looking to see if anyone has pictures of the underside of the bed. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

I finally got to checking out the m1102 I pick up last week. I went to check the wheel bearing and brake drive side was all good. Then I found a surprise when I removed the passenger side wheel. It seems like the whole brake drum and insides are gone and it's just the outer part that the wheel...

I just picked up a m1102 from a govplanet auction last week. Drove up to yermo today a picked it up and drove it back to fallbrook today. It drove back with no issues. From what I gathered from some paper work found it was in a roll over and then was sent to drmo I'm guessing. The frame and axle...

Does anyone have a source for the firewall grommets for the main wire harness and steering column? The other wires I'm not too worried about but those ones don't seem to be an easy find. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

So my M36 didn't come with a generator or alternator and the bracket. So I'm trying to get some inputs to upgrade to something better or put the milspec one back in. I saw a few older post about people using wolverine technologies and one other I can't remember right now. So just looking for...

I'm working in painting my M38a1 to the Marine Corps Green and I'm looking for some input on what yellow I should be using for the marking. I think someone said to John deer yellow cause that's was the closest to yellow drab. Also does any one know the layout of the markings the Marines used...

So my deuce was missing the gen when I got her. But recently I got my hands on a gen that was off a m35a2 but the problem I'm having is my truck has the a plug with 3 holes and this gen doesn't have a plug it has 3 places to connect wires to post. How can I remove the plug and make sure I get...

Anyone know how to get a stuck engine stop cable working again? Or is it better to get a new one? Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk
