As I said, it is most likely the serial number on the B1 series is on the passenger side frame rail, there are a lot of exceptions. I've got or had many 64's and 65's that have the number on the passenger side. Then again I have a 63 that has it on the drivers side. Again, most likely it will be...

Rough, but restoreable Clearly not Canadien. Not a modified truck. She will be between 1957 and 1968 in vintage. The serial number will most likely NOT be on the drivers side but on the frame rail above the front axle on the passenger side not as on the drivers side as it is for 1951 through...

Maybe not better, I ran the originals for almost 23 years up and down the highways and backroads hunting and when I didn't have a truck that could tow these M37's on a trailer I drove the M37's to where we were hunting and used them everywhere and for everything and never even got stopped or had...

Maybe a little too beefy. The darn thing weighs a ton. It does what I hoped it would though. I backed into a tree last weekend and banged the truck pretty hard on the tailgate, didn't even phase it. Please plan to come on up, if you have the time we can take the two trucks for a run and whatever...

Hi Cabell I thought I'd mess with you just a bit :) Regards, Bryan

I built it from a picture of a 6x6 model in a book by Zenthmeyer. I put in a Dodge 360 V8. I figured a way to bolt the original transmission up to a small block mopar v8 bellhousing. She has power steering, an engine driven air compressor with a small air tank under the passenger seat. Because I...

Hi Arlyn, Bryan up here near Idaho Springs. What do you want for the drum? My 6X6 is in need of some near new ones. Thanks Bryan

Re: RE: Re: 12 or 24 volt M37 Actually they're close enough that a single resistor will do the job as it has for me many times in the past. You have to remeber typical voltages vary greatly in a vehicle. Headlights as well as many automotive elements that are primarilly resistive are very...

Re: 12 or 24 volt M37's Just now caught your question. Yes a resistor in each ground leg of the headlights. Typical headlights have three posts or connectors, one being the dims or low beam, and the second for the high beams or brights. They share the ground or return leg or post internally...

Re: RE: Re: RE: Inverted Flares I found a cut up frame section from the rear of a WWII WC 62 or 63 and used that piece. The frames are slightly different with the WC being an 1 1/2" wider on each side. The thirds and brake shoes are identical. I used the front 2/3s of one M37 bed and the rear...

Re: RE: Inverted Flares Hopefully this will show up. Stock transmission, transfer case,front axle and rear 6X6 axles. A Dodge 360 V8 with power steering and an engine driven air compressor with a small storage tank under the passenger seat. The wheels are the stock LAV wheels that come with...

Re: RE: new or NOS m37 gas tank or substitute More than likely it won't read at all and if you get the wrong sender it stands a very good chance of damaging your gauge. The gauges depend on sender resistance ranges from empty to full rather than on voltages. There are many many different...

Inverted Flares The older style boxes used inverted flares just like the brake lines only larger. The new style boxes use this 16 and 18mm 1.5 o-ring type fitting. I measured both new and old style hoses and the metal tubing is the same diameter so a 3/8 inch compression coupling will work just...

Years ago, around15 now, while I was doing the plans for the M37 6X6 I decided that power steering was going to be a must. There had been info on reverse rotation steering boxes that matched the rotation of the stock M37s. I bought a pump to go on the 360 V8 I was putting in the truck and found...

WHAT? You could drive it down here and I'd take a look at it. Providing you can remember where I live and you mind the ice :wink:

Re: Series or Parallel, To Be or Not To Be That and some wire and connectors. Disconnect the ground wire from the harness at inside fender well from one of the headlights, connect your wire to the ground wire from this headlight and run it over to the other headlight. Disconnect both the high...

Holy Toledo! Wait a minute. A much more important issue is who is the hood ornament on that truck????????? OOOH MY GOD, and where can I get one?

Series or Parallel, To Be or Not To Be No, unfortuneately you can't. you can on single element bulbs but because the headlight has two elements that go to one ground internally there is no way run two wires to one headlight and then run those two separate wires over to the other headlight and...

Ground Legs Yes, one in each of the ground legs on the headlamps. Normal headlamps have three wires or connectors. One is a ground or common for the low and high beam elements. For other bulbs that may use the body or housing for ground to the frame you would have to use a resistor for each...

12 or 24 volt M37's What a subject. First, lets discuss hooking up a 12 "Load" to just one of the two batteries that make up a 24 volt system. Bad Idea. When you use just one of the batteries which are in series, you drain one more than the other. The 24 charging system (which actually runs...
