Re: Fuel pump

In my 19 year adventure with My M37 I have only been stranded twice. Each time it was a mechanical fuel pump issue. With the OEM pump the lever pin backed out. Then I put a civvy PW pump on. That lever came apart. Two years ago I installed a Carter 24VDC marine grade pump with a spin on fuel filter ...

Re: Front Axle Pinion Bearing

Here's a tip. Keep in mind any proper Timken bearing dealer (BDI, Motion, Applied, ect) should be able to get any cup and cone at substantial savings over the internet dealers. Most major cities have a branch of one of these vendors. All taper roller and ball bearings on M37's or civvy PW are curren...

Re: Central NC Event September 29-30th Stanly Co. NC

Thank you Gary for posting my pics. Not sure why my PC is not cooperating LOL. A shout out to all the MV folks and re-en actors that showed. Had it not been for us the public would have had little to look at. The folks who put the event on seemed to have fallen short of the "County Fair" a...

Re: Military Vehicles Magazine

Still looking for those resto pics...buried somewhere... LOL As for Military Vehicles/Collectors Magazine I am done. One issue had an article more or less condoning the name changes for US Military bases to be politically correct. A magazine based on history condones erasing it? I sent an ad for a r...

Re: Military Vehicles Magazine

Hey Group, It's been a while so I figured i would chime in on this. As a collector of both I was thrilled until I opened the magazine and found the paper reminding me of a cheap freebee newspaper. I kept checking to see if the ink came off on my fingers. Some of the type was blurred. Mis-identified ...

Re: Vale Carter Davidson

Our M37 and the community is sadly missing a true gentleman in this hobby. Although I never met him in person we emailed and conversed on the phone once or twice. He was always supportive of my endeavors and throughout the restoration of my truck. He will be missed. Prayers and condolences to Sandy ...

Re: Redi-sleeve install? Hubs inner grease seal

Red Utility, Am I missing something here? It sounds like you are trying to install a sleeve onto the actual axle shaft? The speedi- sleeve for the rear axle seal goes on the hub nut flange that contacts the lip of the seal plate. The driver that came with the speedi sleeve whether a SKF or National ...

Re: 2021 ROLL CALL-PLEASE CHECK IN!

Hello Old Friends and New Members, First a shout out to Robi for helping with my password glitch. 14 years here ...WOW! It has been 15 years since my M37 purchase and old M37B1 "58-091618" still serves me well 25,000 miles later. She is no longer the award-winning resto she once was. Paint...
