    S89 B/G Comm Shelter for M37

    I happened to find a Communication Shelter that fits into the back of the M37 with the troop seats still installed but folded upright. The plan is to restore this to an operational mobile radio shelter but not necessarily with the old teletype equipment. Its OK to hate me for not restoring it to...

    M1009 Inside The Cab Radio Cables

    I have been looking for a CX-13290 control cable (@15') for the radio installation in my M1009 and have hit a temporary roadblock. I'm wondering if anyone has stripped any out of a 09 that they still have laying around in their garage. The cable runs between the radio shelf and the dashboard...

    I picked up a GM steering damper (AC Delco 509-616) for a K5 and its 4+ inches shorter than the one I just pulled off the front end. What are you guys running for a damper on a stock M1009? Thanks in advance, Bert

    Odd Engine Tick on Right bank VC

    Last night I noticed a noise that almost sounds like a rocker or two ticking on the right hand bank valve cover. I had been doing an alternator rebuild and new belts two weekends ago and didn't notice this noise. I didn't make any road trips since then. I will be opening up that side of the...

    Rebuilt my 24 volt Distributor

    I rebuilt my 24 volt distributor with new bushings, top shaft seal, coil, points, cond, rotor and cap a couple of days ago. The original bushings had about .010" wobble on the top end and I don't think anyone had soaked the oiler wick for the last 20 years. I even oiled the wick under the rotor...

    Cab Top Help

    I put the soft top on my M37 last night and can't seem to get the front/windshield edge to stay put. The canvas top has the rope bead in it but I think the rim at the top of the windshield is too wide. Is there another part missing or do I have to crimp down that lip slightly?

    Pictures of my project truck - M37

    I picked this truck up a few weeks back and finally got around to taking a few pictures. I've been driving it around and its a blast. I took an air hose to the under coating in the wheel wells and on the frame. I found Strata Blue that still has a shine to it. The truck has very little surface...

    Non functioning Gas Gauge

    I just purchased this truck 3 weeks ago and I'm in the process of learning what makes it tick. This truck is a blast to drive. The truck has had a new fuel tank put in by the previous owner. I need to know what I should look for first. All of the other gauges work and the rest of the...
