A the bottom rear of the tank is a small pipe plug you can remove and drain out whatever might remain in the tank into a container. Stock fuel pumps have a hand lever attached to them. Depending on where the camshaft lobe is on the pump lever inside the engine pumping the outside hand lever is...
Very much worth it. I've owned a couple over the years. The old Southwind heater in the back will keep the inside nice and warm. They make the most wonderful camping outfit. A bit top heavy so going on trails the M37 can handle is a bit much for them, you get nervous when that trucks shifts hard...
Found a completely rusted up dual output PTO for the M37 series. I have a set of gears from AB Linn. The dual shaft is pitted badly around the seal contact points so I'll use a machineable epoxy to return it to correct OD on both sides and then press fit sleeve them. The reverse gear bearings...
Perhaps an Organization familiar or favored by him then. Norwegian, NATO, or US, and for all those years the Deuce has been in service, he has a lot of choices.
Velkommen Ove,
Du faktisk snakker bedre engelsk enn noen folk her.
Overraskende, stavemåten er enda bedre enn noen.
Det er mange ordninger som du kan velge blant disse lastebilene var og er fortsatt i tjeneste, og har vært i mange tiår. Så ta deg tid til, hun ser veldig fint ut akkurat nå...
Last Spring I converted the 6X6 to 12 volts. Because the wiring is 14 gauge I was concerned about excessive current at various points. I know you won't be changing your Deuce over but I found a super source for relatinvely inexpensive LED lighting on eBay. So far not one hiccup. Military issue...
Very possible, the Selectro style came in a number of names. Dualmatic, Perfect Circle, Selectro, to name a few. The hubs were the same but the end caps had different casting blanks that could be used to place different names on the caps. Used to have a good list of the different names that came...
The only hubs I'm aware of that are still available for the M37/Power Wagon/WC series are the Selectro and Superwinch models. The Selectro is 11022-01 and the Superwinch is 400508. I've had several load related failures with the Superwinches as of the last couple of years. This may have been...
You sure do. That is the one I got from you. Thanks again Gene. It was down to 12 degrees Wednesday night, it sure made a difference. My Son always wants to take the motorhome, but I like my GP small. I built custom headboards with trays for the old wooden military cots. The inflatable...
Have you been on the trail to Bill Moore John? The main trails are certainly big enough for the large trucks as I mentioned. Chris it's very possible you might brush some pine needles, but nothing serious. Most of the trail is open sky. The first post if carefully read, says that the main trails...
Of course Gene, anyone would be welcome to come along and have some fun. I just threw out some neighboring states to give folks a geographical reference. Sd isn't that far away, in fact closer than a lot of nearby states. Thanks Gene, it would be great to have you show up.
Regards,
Bryan
It's too late for this year but I was thinking maybe a Mountain States Rally would be a good thing. There are some super trails not far from here that go up to timberline and can be a bit tough. One is the trail to Bill Moore Lake above Empire, CO. The snow drifts usually get up to 30 feet deep...
Nope, I haven't been able to locate any that were new enough and didn't involve a lot of money to ship them. I believe Bubba got you (?) had some, or still does. But the $700 to get 2 here which includes shipping isn't my first choice right now. If this fellow works out in Pensacola (Joe), I...
That's a good question. I'd probably work in a M35A2 engine/tranny/xfer. That would be the easiest and cheapest. I see fewer and fewer of the 135/211 units around. Becoming rare I imagine. I believe I know of where a 211 is that was brought in for scrap and has been sitting for years. It was in...
That's a beautiful truck as well Gene. In the over 40 M35's both gasser and multi's I've done and owned, I've never messed with a GMC. Maybe I'll combine my plans on a Bob with a GMC. I think that will go good. It's snowing up here at 8500 feet Gene, are you missing it yet???? Soon enough to get...
