Would you be so kind as to take a photo of the radiator guard and mounts where the hood latch catches? Thanks. The cab looks just like the one I have on my 53 M37.
I had a battery explode. This was not a military battery. I test run an emergency generator at the facility I work. When it's in the single digit temps I run the generator each morning when I start. I was at the control panel and flipped the generator only run switch, Then like was previously...
Great looking Truck and trailer combo. Mon Wed Fri Trailer with canvas, Tue Thur Sat Trailer with bows, Sunday says it, let the sun shine in no bows or canvas.
Nice truck I have a 54 M37CND, I wish mine looked this good.The hard top looks perfect,I like the slider rear window, and the passenger side mirror is still there. Again Nice VERY nice truck.
The best thing to do is to remove the window. The access panel is where you get at every thing.To take that off,lower the window, look for the X type arm holding the window frame.The window should be sitting on a set of stops. There are small clips about the size of a quarter,remove these, they...
I picked up a lot of the Douglas connectors from a vendor that came form Canada. He may be at Aberdeen. He was fair with the price. I 'll have to look if I have any paperwork from him.
The best thing is to clean all the moving parts,apply light oil,and replace the guides. As Mike_L mentioned it may take you a few tries to get things lined up. No need to replace the mechanism if it's not broken.

When I first started on my M37 I picked up a copy. Like mentioned by AN/GRC-46 it wasn't all that useful. Several pages were from TMs. Yea, maybe I should have picked up an extra copy or two if I had any Idea they would be selling for that much.
I can't seam to locate anything lately. I have(somewhere) A replacement element. In your TM on page 208, it shows the element. Now if my memory servers me correctly (remember how I can't find anything) The element is made of thin metal.It could be copper, But I can't recall . Compressed air can...
I don't have the book in front of me, when traveling in black out conditions the front black out lights are for the vehicle in front of you to know where you are. The TM shows how the lights would look at different distances between vehicles.
When I bought my Mutt it had an A2 wheel. This was quite some time ago, I was new to the Mutt, A friend removed it and replaced it with an A1 wheel. Hope you still have the A1 column. Why change that?
Hay Seabee, Sell this truck and use the money to help the 51 out. Oh, I didn't see the winch lever,The bumper is a non winch type in the third picture.
