Hey Kurt! Nice to hear from you! Mine is in a bit better shape-color comparison was more the theme for my last post. You know, I now have your cab in place mated up with the bed I got in SLC last year, the M is now OD on the outside (just had to get some OD on it before the rains come) with fresh ne...

I agree with Jeff. This is a somewhat embarrasing story to tell but I'll share it now in order to spare someone else the agony of the possible disaster that nearly befell me. In my haste and excitement to get my new-found M37 home some years back, I tried to save some cash by using a two wheel dolly...

If you feel that the decal needs to be included based on the type of restoration you are doing, then by all means, do so. On the other hand, that decal to my knowledge was never included when the vehicle came from the factory, so the importance of the decal is strictly your call based on what you wa...

Hey Bruce,
That one isn't too bad at all! Ironically it is the same color as the bed I picked up last year (ignoring the rust color)!

I got mine from ABLinn in NC via E-Bay.

Tom,
The 10 signifies the "cold" weight of the oil. As the engine warms up, the oil viscosity thickens to 30 weight. I doubt that the oil in the oil bath would thicken up to 30 weight unless the oil bath gets very warm.

(I knew those years at Valvoline were good for something!)

That might be the Military Vehicle Collectors of California-a state-wide group with several chapters. Not a predecessor of the MVPA that I'm aware of.

I went with Gammagoat taillights, even though they don't have the "cat eyes" for blackout drive because I need the additional brilliance of the lights that the stock lights don't provide. I also plan on using a detachable amber "whoopee light" when on the road.

I too, pulled my tranny last year but did not have a sling or hoist. My solution was to run a length of pipe horizontally from front of the cab to the back, attached chain as described in Charles' post, then used a good ratchet strap to apply tension between the pipe and tranny chain-just enough to ...

Not yet road-worthy and I'm getting those reactions when it's parked and I'm working on it. They run the gamut of "Nice jeep... (ugh), or "that's awesome!" or other comments-always very positive and it helps my motivation to get it on the road.

Wallace Wade in Dallas has the correct tubes cheap-don't risk your life over an incorrect set of tubes-get the right tubes that would cost under $60. I just got a set of four new tires, tubes and flaps from WW at a GREAT price. If I may- remember, Safety First! You can shortcut stuff like the incorr...

For the stock MC that should be the brake light switch with two terminal posts.

If my old Army memory serves me correctly, the 50 with triangle would be 50th Armored division, and the 1F258 would be 1st of the 258th Field Artillery....

Too high for my taste, although I prefer the shorter length as opposed to my Superwinch pair.... I also know that Tom has some nice guards for them.

Sorry for the delayed response, Rick. If you have the clutch access pan off, shine a light up to the back of the block around the end of the crank, ahead of the flywheel and clutch area-if you don't see any bolt heads you have the split-seal type. VPW gave me the scoop on these and there is no rhyme...
