M37 tools

Post by Paddyofurniture »

Does anyone have a list with or without photo of the tools issued with a M37?

Thanks,

There's a list of the tools supplied with the trucks in the Specifications section of this website http://www.g741.org/Specifications.html. But be aware that some of the things like first aid kit, fire extinguisher(?) and the type jack were deleted or changed during the production so compare your vehicle number against the changes shown on the Production Changes page of this site to see what is appropriate and what's not. SOMEWHERE on the net I have seen a picture of the original hydraulic jack that was issued for the M-37 but i didn't bookmark it. It's the only picture of that jack that I've ever seen.

OTD 7 SNL G-741 is one of the better list sources.

Thanks for posting a link to my photos Wes, always good to see them being used to inform other M owners. I would have put them up yesterday but other duties kept me busy.

Here is another view of the jacks that were issued with our trucks, note both are slightly different and although not visible in this shot the model numbers differ also.

I remember these jacks when I was in the Army.

When the M37 went away there was a big pile of jacks and tools in the parts area to be turned in.

I should have "obtained" a set.

When my unit was turning in their M37s I was ask if I wanted one of the jacks but I was only able to get one at that time, the other I bought at a yard sale.
