    M37 hardtop

    Most of the Air Force M37's had Factory hardtops , they are VERY hard to find . The reason I picked up my M37 is because it was EX AF with the hard top . good luck

    military earthmoving equipment owners?

    I hear you about the SIMPLE DIESEL's , air , fuel , compression and she's a runner ! IMHO , they ruined the diesel engine with all the electronic garbage and filters . When they break now , better get the hook ! LOL

    fluid leaking out of transfer case

    Cab/Bed removal Difficulty

    360 is a nice upgrade , the only difference in the 727 transmission's I believe is the 727 in the 880 is a SHORT tail shaft and the 2WD uses a LONG tail shaft , if MY OP memory serves me . Same case , just different tail shaft and output shaft . BTW , MPG ? depends how much FOOT you put into it .
