Default M37 carb rebuild kit help?

Well I decided to rebuild the carb on my M37 because it needs it. Problem is that I have no idea what type of carb I have. I have a 1962 M37B1. The carb is pretty gunky and all I can make out is Ball and Ball made for chrysler. I couldn't find anything that said ETW1 or anything else that would tell me which rebuild kit I need. Any ideas on this? Thanks.

You might try Vintage power Wagons in Iowa for a kit. 888-695-0578 They will probably know without numbers and such.

If you are going to go into your Carter (Ball and Ball) ETW1, then you really need to study the article that Allan Bowes wrote a while back on the job (and the companion one on cleaning and adjusting the governor). He still has it on his website at:
http://todacosa.com/html/m37-pw-service.htm

I'd give Sid Beck at ACE Surplus in Texas a call before VPW. Much better prices...

does anybody have a website or number for ace surplus? I haven't heard of them. That website was really helpful though. Does anybody know anything about the AFLA or NAPCO kits he describes in his article? I have never heard of either of them. Thanks.

Here is his phone number. His name is Sid Beck and is a great guy. 361-573-3276 He will know about the kits and probably has both.
