5-ton t/c? So, are you repairing or replacing it? If just a bearing - hit a local bearing supply house. Replacing the unit in a hurry locally? - then try Mike Metzger Bethlehem PA 610-791-0681 (maybe new # since last checked), Joe Young Inc. (Mighty Joe Young, email mvtrucker@aol.com)...

Good question! 1. Tent/sleep in truck 2. extra socks - to stay warm 3. warm clothes 4. extra oil/coolant - especially if you elect to drive thru deep water and need to flush diffs 5. extra u joints 6. extra fuses/elect tape/16ga wire - to make McGuiver fixes 7. top off all fluids before...

I will be taking up the SS collection for srodocker's final expenses based upon the above post. I hope srodocker enjoys the fleeting moments he has in his life before she kills him and sells his truck for scrap.

Pulling seals, and easier way . . . I rebuilt my t/c last year. First off, pulling the seals is a pain. Second, rebuilding the t/c makes the truck so much quieter - you can have normal conversations in the cab vs. yelling. The rebuild was not hard to do. I replaced all the ebearings - including...

E-town huh? Hi neighbor. I'm over by the intersection of Bossler and Bainbridge Sts. I see You know about the Rausch Creek MV rally 10/22-25 - in case the weekend frees up. I'm going and would be glad to lend a hand/tools to get your truck ready. Also, don't forget parades. I do the...

It appeared some folks were concerned about the cost. The price is per day of using the trails. I will run trails Saturday and leave Sunday morning - a single day of use. A number of folks just come to RC to watch the events - they park and walk around for free. So, if $ is really tight...

Slight change of plans for me. I forgot we have tickets for a ghost event in Gettysburg that Friday at some inn. So, we will be arriving Sat morning and leaving on Sunday.

Ditto what the others said. The single piston callipers are reliable and are sufficient for the M37's braking needs. I run Helitool discs in the front w/ 11.00 x 16 tires, which weigh more than the OEM tires. I can lock up the tires while braking. I also am using a dual reservior master...

Also, Rausch Creek only took CASH last year. Laddie - convoys will form up (postings to follow likely) - join one on the way past your place or link to one on an interstate. It is more fun, safer, and a relief in case you break down - surounded by fellow MV nuts/spare parts/shadetree...

Ah yes I see, but I do not have a son...was going to bring my brother, but still not sure if he can make it. M37Dodge should be listed with his son.....weather permitting he wrote :smile: Cool - there will be 2 M37's this year. :) I've been posting the info on power wagon and M37 forums...

It lasts for years. My WWII Semi-Gloss was at least 4 years old when I used it. No problems. Lots of mixing is needed though. On opened cans, try to keep air out to make it last - I heard putting a thin layer of mineral spirits on top of the paint in the can is a good way to store it long term.

You will need some clearance. I think it was Lance or his son's stock Chevy (CUCV??) pick up had difficulty with avoiding smashing his differentials on the boulders b/c it had stock tires. Sometimes it happens no matter what line you take on the trail. Cast iron vs granite is not pretty. It...

Dodge M37 Weather permitting, I'll be there again with my son and Dodge M37. I really need to swap out the flathead - much too wimpy to pull the M101 trailer on the road. UPDATE: THREE PEOPLE now going. We had such a blast last year that my nephew wants to come as well. That makes 3...

Fed Mogul #992112 / National 99187 and/or National #410308 - width of seal surface is wider for 1 - I forget which. They run ~$27 locally. The pitting on the yoke kills seals. You could just buy a NOS pinion yoke for $10 from AB Lin instead:) Later.

"the m24a3 mount was a totally different breed built only for the m37 the height and width was different." This contradicts my M24A3 tech manual, the Military Vehicles Mag article on the Dodge MG mounts, and my observations looking at the mounts. Most M24A3 mounts, which were intended for the...

There is a guy in E-pay selling them located in Europe. Search for M31 data plates - his text references he makes the M24 series data plates also. $24.95. I have no experience or connection to him.

Frank, Use a NP200 out of a M37 - very common. Just swap on the WC style yokes. I have a M37 and put a WC output yoke to the ebrake output shaft to get 2 rear facing yokes - for a centered rear project. Helitool's website shows how to do the conversion. -M37Dodge P.S. the M37 NP200 uses a...

Vintage Tire in Hershey, PA is good for new 16" tires: 9.00 x 16 NDT and 1050 x 16 chevron pattern - for a slightly taller tire (more road speed for same rpm). I am planning to replace m 11.00 x 16 XL's for their 1050 x 16 tires when the XL's die - not too far away as they seem to be wearing...

I only have partial M24A3 blueprints and installation manual. The M24 A2 and A3 versions were nearly identical. I never saw anything for the M24A1. Sorry. Maybe Portrayal Press? Good luck.

Got a decent exhaust shop nearby? If so, they should be able to make it up w/o too much effort or cost. Stainless would be nice. . . .
