Ok Thank you very much

Not a time to be hostile I'm only asking questions I bought this as a project to restore, and yes I know how to use the internet and I know how to do things on my own. After spending 3 years in the Rhodesian Army taught me a few things in life. I thought this site was created for a reason unless...

Can youhelp me in finding this ?MWO ORD G741-W7 I was not able to find it in the manuals section of this web site. Thank you

1953 M37 3/4 ton Dodge Truck

So I could not find in the MANUAL how to take out the Drivers door window from the door itself meaning the whole frame so I can take it down to the Glass company to have the drivers side door window replaced. I have the lower panel off but where do I go from there? what is the easy way of doing...

Say is there a way to polorize the generator to see if it is charging, like connect a wire to the voltage regulator somehow? without taking out the generator to have it bench tested? I bought a new Voltage regulator for the M37 but has not come in the mail yet.

After further inspection of the under carriage it appears that their was never a pivot bracket to begin with, meaning no signs of screw holes for a bracket on the back to be mounted.

That's what I'm thinking, are there parts to replace it? but that means I have to try to bust the weld on the plate they welded in the floor board the PTO lever lines up with that welded plate. so where can I get the pin that goes in the lower PTO bar that hooks into the pivot bar? p

Here is what I have under the Carriage I found it thank you for the photo's but I think I'm missing that upper piece and maybe that's why they welded the plate inside the cab to make up for that one arm on the PTO. This is a Marine Corps Truck so no telling what the Marines modified back in the...

Does anyone know where the PTO lever attaches too? or does anyone have a picture of their under carriage that I can use as a reference? I have a M37 that has a LU4 winch I have the PTO lever now so I'm trying to see where the bottom of the lever attaches to, as of right now I can not see...

Here is how the battery system is set up when I bought the truck

Now I know these models back in the day only used regular leaded fuel (MoGas) and today our Gasoline has changed in the last 65 years. what I'm saying is I have a 1970 superbee with a 440 and I had to have the rings changed in order to except the unleaded fuel, now has anyone had to do this with...

Well I need to find out if it is not the voltage regulator too and not the Generator too, or both maybe gone. all I know after a full charge the truck sure likes to drain my batterys fast. I see that they sell rebilds and new voltage regulators at vintage power wagons.

Well I have read this and I don't think I can do this type behind the motor pool job, it might be easier for me to either get another Generator and or voltage regulator the date on my voltage regulator is 8/1954 for a 1953 truck so maybe it was time for it to die. anyway I have new battery's not...

Ok I did not see a voltage regulator on this model or did I not see it? thank for your information I did find 4 on eBay for the M37 series but mine only takes a single belt these come with a dual belt like you would add another belt to it for something else like possible power steering maybe...
