PoW, That's one fine Truck. Seeing that 'expanded' gauge plate, I'm thinking: Diesel. Sure enough. Looks like it was a seamless fit too. Rough situation for the buyer's state of mind, and a shame the M-37 has gone off the map. Hopefully someone is appreciating it, and will post on here someday. It's...

PoW,
You sure are one tough customer to go thru all that and still be "Truckin'". God Bless You! I hope that is all behind you now, and STAYS THERE.
Thanks for the good words and 'Welcome'.
Chris

Greetings Folks, Lord Almighty, Life sure is strange. I logged on today, and I started by reading NAM VET's posts about stumbling onto the Heritage Group, and the resources and camaraderie there. While he was looking to sell his M-37, life instead presented a fresh look at an old friend. After readi...

Greetings Bruce,
Is this still available as I am interested?Also,is this new or had it been installed?Thank you for your attention to this,Chris.

Greetings Bob, The answer is located,well,right here on this site.Under Mil Spec Documents,Military Specs,there are three listings for the M-37 family trucks as follows: M-37B1-obsolete 9/11/78. XM-708-obsolete 12/19/80. XM-711-obsolete 12/30/80. I remembered going through all the headings awhile ag...

Good information Joe,here and over on Wes' post about changing from the 24 volt W.P. system.Very detailed,and concise.Much appreciated. I have a '52 and figured they used a spring steel strap set with a tension hook that went in those two slots.Webbing will be so much easier to come by. Thank you mu...

Greetings Matt,
Do you happen to have pictures?You can PM me if you care to.Thank you,Chris.

Greetings Wes,
I'm interested,but I can't figure what size they are from the info.Are they 9x16? If so, I'll buy them. PM me if you like.Thank you,Chris.

Greetings There Monkey Man, Was perusing the tech area and stumbled onto your pictures link.Thank you for posting them. Your truck looks fabulous! The time,trouble,and injuries,have resulted in a very unique yet factory-made-appearance rig. I was reading your steering linkage inquiries the other nig...

Greetings Folks, Gerry I just went through this aggrivation in Sept through Oct. while doing an engine replacement.I started out with alot of room to work.The dash and underdash were stripped for phosphating,priming,and painting.The motor and trans were out with the trans cover removed,and I worked ...

Hey Folks, Well it's been a week since this was posted,and I hope Bob is getting good gauge readings by now,but I'll chime in in case you're still thinking about it.I've been through a few harnesses in the past year on mine and a friends truck,and I've had the old meets new situation a number of tim...

Greetings Folks, I just saw this post tonight and thought I'd add a bit from a situation I'm involved with.To get 12V from a two 12V battery 24V system: Run a cable from the positive terminal and a cable from the negative terminal (very important,this "splits" the voltage) of ONE of the ba...

Greetings Folks, I was going to make a suggestion based on a method I had just used today,(and was going to post as well),and CalGary beat me to it.Yes I will confirm that brake fluid works VERY well.I removed 5 layers of paint from my dash panel without removing the cadmium plating that I was tryin...

Greetings Mark, Army Tank Guy on eBay has one listed for auction.You could call him and see if he has another available for sale.I don't think an auto parts store will carry this one as it has fittings on both ends as opposed to a civie version that generally has a tubing fitting on at least one end...

Greetings,These valves are of the ball type,(generally considered superior to the gate and stem type by the way),and every one I have ever come across,and that's literally hundreds,have a keyed handle/ lever to ball stem so that the handle/lever position follows flow,as your look-see varified.Going-...
