Shoe to drum adjustment is extremely important, be sure you do it right or you will surely have substandard braking action. Most M37's that come through here with a complaint of poor brakes are found to be 99.5% because of improperly adjusted shoe to drum clearances. The original brake system works...

The accelerator pump is spring loaded. When there is no vacuum (for example the engine is not running) the spring forces the accelerator pump in the downward position. When the truck is started the vacuum is applied to the top of of the accelerator pump cylinder and overpowers the spring causing the...

My truck is running with the 100 amp system. Please feel free to ask any questions and I'll help you out the best I can. I can provide pictures if you need that, too.

And your truck should have an alternator, not a generator. That's what the rectifier is used for. It converts the AC to DC.

When the cluth is released you have to bring the engine rpms up to match approximately rpms the engine would be at if it were in gear at that speed. Then while maintaining that rpm, press the cluth in and down shift. The general idea is to get all the parts inside the tranny spinning at the correct ...

Both types of mechanical pumps I have used on my M-37 were self priming. Now, it's probably better on your batteries to try to get the fuel up to the pump manually first, but it should work either way. I use a dangerous process of 'priming' my truck, but I'd not recommend it.

dman, The pumps are easy to differentiate if you know what the original looks like. Here are two pictures. The first is the military pump (fuel pump on top and vacuum pump on bottom) with the priming lever easily identifiable. The second pump is the common civilian pump used. I'm using the civilian ...

Hello everyone, and todays intake manifold replacement question is : AS my repalcement exhaust manifold's heat control valve don't work, or is absent altogether, shall I install a blank plate into what is the bypass between the intake and exhuast manifold? I don't understand how the use of such a v...

And it's a good idea to go ahead and hook up a vacuum gauge, if available, and adjust your idle mixture screw for max vac if your adjusting your idle speed.

well cut off the housing , sprayed on some lube and used the shop press with wood blocks to press it in worked fine, after disasembly it looks like you could set it in the press and press it out from the front, my only question now is the 2 pins supposed to be on the same side as the key notch for ...

I'm not sure about the M37, but my Studebaker Weasel came with brass data plates so I know some military vehicles came with them as originals.
