Trust me, they're all money pits! Sometimes you just have to bite the bullet.

I have a set of run flats that are two piece and bolt together, are these different from HMMWV run flats? I don't know anything about them from the guy that gave them to me except he said they were HMMWV.

They call that improvisation in the field, keep 'em rollin'!

I could use a set up like this on my M51a2.

I'm not questioning the lubricity of umo as fuel, just saying the detergents fight the fine particles separating. In fact where I used to work we made fire resis tant hydraulic fluid and one of the components was indeed micronized sulfur as a lubricant. It's also the reason that ultra low...

Actually I had considered fiber glassing my original soft top, but at the time years ago I didn't expect to have a problem finding a hard top. I had covered my top with a plastic tarp but unfortunately that seemed to cause the thread to rot and I wound up with a bunch of torn pieces. More of...

Curious why you would put it in the ground side? I always though it went in the hot side.

I think they might be scarce as hen's teeth, or maybe made of unobtainium. I've been looking for years with no luck.

The emulsifiers and detergents were added for the very reason they give up problems with the solids NOT separating. If you are old enough to remember nondetergent oils you will remember poking a stick in the oil drain to get the oil to flow when draining. High Detergent oils hold the carbon...

I've been considering "washing" umo with water and soda ash for a while. The soda ash would neutralize any acid and I'm thinking solubles would remain in the water after settling. It would be simple to decant the water later. Heating and agitation would probably help speed up the exchange. I...

I've seen the same pictures from across the left pond, I think Thialand or Vietnam. I've seen some hairy ones from Russia crossing rivers.

I wonder what the contraption on the back is? Attached or just sitting on it?

I don't know what the rating of your receiver is but that setup might just peel the whole thing off your frame. I would check it sooner than later.

Resurrecting an old thread, I've been searching the M-37 forum for awhile looking for pictures of an M-37 setting on Chevy 3/4 ton axles. Had a bad night recently and as I do when the arthritis is acting up I was "daydreaming" about putting the drive train out of a rusted out '89 Suburban with...

Learn something new everyday. I probably would have let soak for like a month in Kroil before I got that brave.

:roll:I guess I just don't have any imagination, I call the m51a2 "big green", the m54a2 "big red", and the M37 "the Dodge".

Wow! I haven't pulled that one since I was a teenager, about half a century ago. I'm interested in this thread because I'm restoring an '80 Chevy 3/4 ton that has really low gears, somewhere in the 5s but I forget the exact #, old brain and I didn't write it down. It's not military but is...

I'm really not comfortable with the idea of a heating coil laying on the bottom of an aluminum keg in the presence of dirty oil(think acid from combustion)! Were you planning on a ground fault interrupter? I really think you need to find a steel drum, they're not as common these days because...

I can kinda follow the math, it's been a long time since school days and my brain is a lot older/slower. That last post went way over my head. It occurs to me the reason the military put turbochargers on these engines is because it's easier/cheaper to pump the air in than to port/polish to get...

May be financial cancer but what a way to go. I absolutely love the M37.
