Leaks

If after a quality rebuild, your truck leaks.
That just says something about the quality of the rebuild.
My engine does not leak (now), after the new transmission,
it doesn't leak either. Both diffs leak and the Xfer case do but
those are next on the list.

My father was stationed about twenty miles from Uxbridge
at Henlow. His version was "Per Ardua ad asbestos"
translated (roughly) to " F*** you I'm fireproof ".
P.S. My Dad is 87

l've also noticed that the RAF motto is similar to yours.
"PER ARDUA AD ITER"
It's
"PER ARDUA AD ASTER" <please excuse my spelling>
Also I've always used HOO RAH.

Damage to my truck= 0
Damage to Jeep Cherokee= lost front license plate, cracked fake plastic bumper.
I told my boss (his truck) he said" I don't care if you totaled the truck,
you just do what you've got to do".
They don't make bosses like that anymore.

another option

Another option that is better than an electric but not as good as PTO. A hydraulic. You can power the pump either by PTO or by a fan belt in the engine compartment. I have been thinking about this option for a while. Milemarker makes a good one 12K#. see http://www.milemarker.com/winch-12.html J.B. ...

Just a thought

I was driving my M37 yesterday and it gave me pause to ponder. I enjoy driving this truck sooo much, it's just fun. I love the reactions. Men, obvious envy. Women, don't get it, hope that their men don't get any bright ideas. Old men, young children wave and smile. [tounge in cheek] Does everbody el...

Re: Nice, Nice M37 on Ebay

[quote="Paul (in NH)"]:D What a nice solid truck. Wish shipping was more reasonable or the truck was closer. Somebody out west will get a nice truck.


Out West?
Well I guess everwhere is out West to NH!

Alarms

I have a low oil pressure and high temperature alarms going to the annunciator, I dont think that this is what you mean though. They use Murphy gauges that have variable set points on them. My stock gauges all work though, just a good comparison and it lets me know (audibly) if I'm not paying close ...
