    Good, for a minute there I thought it might be my 10 year old Etch-A-Sketch computer finally breathing its last breath....

    Is anybody else having problems getting onto the Midwest Military Supply website? All I keep getting is "Access Denied" or "Page Not Found".

    Air Cleaner Question

    hmmm, something having to do with fording.....my frustratingly uneducated mechanical sense says no just because it drops down to the bottom of the block. I have an old labeled schematic of the entire trucks engine, drivetrain, etc... and it doesnt show it. The only thing it shows is a hole in...

    Air Cleaner Question

    That definitely helps, thanks. I'll try the mineral spirits and see how that works out. From the appearance, it looks like the screen and filter are pretty mucked up so maybe a good soaking overnight will be in order to try and loosen some of that stuff up. I suppose anything I do will be...

    Air Cleaner Question

    I took apart the air cleaner today to see how gunked up it was only to find out that there was not a drop of oil in the sump. As a matter of fact, it doesn't look like there has been oil in there in 20 years.....nothing but a little bit of rust. Before I go and put oil into it, I wanted to...

    Window Gasket

    I just ordered the weatherstripping and some other odds and ends and do dads from Adirondack but they were fresh out of the door window tracks (?) that keep the window in line when it is being rolled up. Since it is my first time ordering from them it will be good to see what their customer...

    Window Gasket

    Right, I should have clarified that. I was actually talking about the weatherstripping that the door windows ride against as they are raised or lowered. Also, the weatherstripping around the windshield glass to keep the weather out. Right now there is a 3/4" gap around the windshield glass.

    Window Gasket

    The previous owner had stripped off all the window gaskets when he did a repaint on the truck and I want to replace them. Does anyone have any pictures of their side window and windshield gasketing that they could share with me? Also, what would be the best place to locate the gasketing that I...

    Say hello to Chris and Tugger

    Thanks for the welcome fella's. Its funny that you should say that about the Corvettes. The driver of the rig told me he hates carrying interesting vehicles like Tugger because everyone pulls up next to him on the highway to rubberneck, making for a dangerous situation for him. Well, when he...

    Say hello to Chris and Tugger

    Good morning everybody. I just wanted to check in and introduce myself. My name is Chris and I am from Long Island, NY. I am now the proud new owner of an M37 and am looking forward to gleaning some information off the board and meeting some new people in the future. I picked up the truck...
