    Telephone Radio Patch

    I use 2M for this. Where I live, I can always hit one. It helps that I have a good antenna and 60 watts

    wiper blades

    That's the way. Stock blades are worthless. I made my own adapter to use modern blades that actually wipe the glass.

    1953 M37 dumping gas into the crankcase

    The pump on an M37 would not be my first choice for learning how to rebuild fuel pumps. If there is a more complex mechanical pump out there, I haven't seen it. With the TM or a good set of instructions and the ability to make a few special tools it is doable in a few hours. If all the check...

    M37 Top

    I had a post fail to post right before the picture of the lever. It said to just make your own. It's nothing but a piece of bar stock with two holes and a rounded end. Also, if you don't have the spring loaded latch, get one before you try and use the winch. Severe damage can be caused by...

    I have plenty of NOS stuff here with wiring. (Radio, accessories, lighting) all of the wiring sheds it's insulation on the first flex.

    M37 Dash Panel Light Shorted - Sparks Flew

    If you buy a harness, make sure it is new and not old stock. Or you will be in the same boat. Buying one is pricey but makes for a quick and easy job. Making your own is not for amatuers. At least not if you want a nice clean long lived harness.

    M37 Top

    Most likely the top they used for a pattern was modified or incorrect. There are no snaps on a correct original top. That said, snaps in addition to the correct tabs would be a good upgrade.

    M37 Dash Panel Light Shorted - Sparks Flew

    You can dismantle the socket and solder a new wire to it. If you don't want to fix the harness and only use it as a parade truck on occasion, I would disconnect all the electrical except brake lights and instruments so you can lessen the chance of an electrical fire.

    It bolts to the exhaust pipe under the cab and to the bracket on the bed side. That is it.

    M37 seat alternative choices?

    Fabricating your own seats isn't any harder than adapting something else in. Hinge the seat back so it can be swung up out of the way to access a front hinged bottom or make a frame to lift a bucket to the front to access a cover over the battery area. Any bucket will work on the driver side.
