    Crane drain

    Well changed out engine oil and filter. Changed out Both fuel filters and good grease job. Been playing catch up on hydraulic lines that seem to let go one after the other in a cascade effect. Three so far but I doubt it will stop there.

    Extruded fender rubber

    I am guessing that the after market rubber trim for the fenders is extruded. Now the new rubber that just came in has a set to it that is backwards. Does this set happen when it is extruded or when they coil it up? The reason I ask and also saw a post about it is the way the new rubber came is...

    Oil pan drain plug free.

    Ok there are two plugs one for the bellhousing and one for the oil pan. The shorter is for the bell housing / fording so as not to hit the starter ring with the threads. Now mine came with the shorter one installed in the oil pan and not one for the bell housing. Mine someone used a bad ratchet...

    Brake bleed alone.

    Not lucky enough or maybe unlucky enough to have a mate here at the house. So off to the ACE hardware to get one gallon sprayer., Had the 5/16 hose here and had to buy the fitting. 1/8 NPT to 5/16 hose barb. I unscrew the adjustable tip on the sprayer. The 5/16 hose will fit over what threads...

    Wheel cylinders

    Changing out one of my wheel cylinders on the M37 and this came up. Now the wheel cylinder that looks new and has no machining on the face where the copper washer would go is a New China wheel cylinder. The older one with rust is from my M37 and the new one was to be for the M37 but the machine...

    Distributor oil port.

    I down loaded the TM's I could find and Erick and I did go through them but I am the problem child here. OK the distributor has a port at the bottom and a flat blade plug. I saw nothing in the TM's or lube order about how often to oil. I put a little motor oil in the port and closed it up...

    Thanks soupermike in La.

    Took time out from his day to get me a pic and measurement off the floor of what the clutch peddle floor board stop plate looks like on the M37. Mine was missing. My name is not Smith and I doubt I could shoe a horse but a little heat and a little bendy bendy and looks good enough to me. It...

    Steering box rubber line.

    At the end of the steering box where the horn wire comes out there was just a little piece of rubber hose there. How far did it run up the inner fender well? seems like it would only have been able to go half way up the inner firewall to the electric connection. I would think it was for fording...

    What did you do to your M37 today?

    Per the help of member pjwest03 aka Harlan starting in on my one wire alternator upgrade. I still have a 16 /19 mm pully on order but things looking good so far. I am using all my stock brackets and as of now looks like I will need a shorter stock belt. Had to rework the alternator just a bit...

    Passenger seat hold down.

    I have the little latch for the front. Was there something to hold the seat from sliding side to side when getting into the truck. I see nothing on the truck seat frame work or on the seat bottom that might hold it from going side to side. Not a big deal just wondering. Tanks

    Boyce stands tall.

    I do not know if Boyce Equipment is a member here but they stood tall. We have a newer member that bought a nice Deuce bobber from them. The IP head developed a small crack inside of the head port #3 after some use. Our member contacted Boyce and they sent out parts to try and help correct the...
