Yea new on assembly always but just the three I have only the USA made has the ridges the New China does not. The one I do not have is one from / for a Deuce or 809 series made in the USA to see if it had ridges. Just seems like we only get crap / plus other things we do not want from China...

Changing out one of my wheel cylinders on the M37 and this came up. Now the wheel cylinder that looks new and has no machining on the face where the copper washer would go is a New China wheel cylinder. The older one with rust is from my M37 and the new one was to be for the M37 but the machine...

Maybe my drums wheel stud holes are in great shape and with the hub wheel studs being in great shape my drum fits very tight to the hub wheel studs. You can also see how much area is on the stud for the drum to lock on too after the threads stop. Setup this way the drum would never have any slop...

Had a little problem and John made it right. Tanks

Went to put the drum back on and without using the three screws the drum did not seat all the way on the hub. This might have given me a bad brake adjustment if I did not see it was not fully seated. I did my brake adjustment with the wheel off. I used the three screws and tighten them down...

Carhug. Remove the 12 point cap plug. Grab the spring and do not loose it. Then with a flat blade screw driver just a little smaller than the port so you do not damage the plug threads you can slowly rotate the screw driver till it locks in on the valve. It will twist around as it is in a round...

Get the fuel control moving free first thing. Then remove the 12 point plug you pointed to first and the spring. Inside is the spring and valve and it has a slot in it and if you chose the correct blade you can spin it and with the in tank fuel pump working it should pop out. Clean it and the...

Well all the parts came in plus my extra bearing race. Packed the inner and installed the hub seal. Got luck my FMTV hub seal tool was the perfect size to match the M37 hub seal. It does not hold it like a matching seal and tool but it was a great to catch all the seal. Started the hub seal with...

I have the Dodge shop manuals coming but here is a pic of the port on a civilian distributor. It has the port and from what I can tell it has the old style spring loaded flip up cap to access the port. I would be willing to bet at one time it called for servicing with oil. I will see when my...

Found my long tappet wrenches and the feeler gage. Looks like plenty of room with just the inner fender removed do not see how taking the whole outer fender would help at all. I already had the front axle down to the spindle for bearing repack and slave cylinder replace. Yea the fuel pump makes...

If it was 1250 at 2200 did you see if you increased the RPM to 2500 / 2600 did it come down? I like to see what my EGT's are when the engine is at the governor or real close to it.

My Fl. antique tags alone limits my travel but ask me if I care. I only go to the shows with the 915 and trailer. The M37 will be used for shows carried there by in closed trailer and maybe the quick run to grocery store. I do not need / or want it as a daily driver.

I have my M37 in my carport or the 20 foot in closed trailer and Gulfway collectors insurance has me covered. Also asked if I had a fenced in yard and I do have the 4 foot fence with a gate but it is always open. They also have my M373A2 semi trailer insured with my M915A2. The M915 is in a...

Vacuum gage is old school and it works. They say the old guys always had one in there tool box and used it often. Yea not only the valves but the timing and so much more as you said. After I built my 502 in my boat my son and I took it out with a vacuum gage. With the boat in gear going forward...

I am getting ready to put the front axle back together with new brakes and slave cylinders. Have the hubs off so I would like to make a inner hub seal installing tool using the inner bearing race. If someone would be so kind as to the race number I will order one and make my tool. Tanks

Yea the wheel would hold the drum on no problem. Think I am just looking for stuff to do to keep my mind off what is happening around the world. Also the right tools makes a easy job of it and I even did the screw that holds the shoe inspection plate on the drum. I like working on this smaller...

Engine oil and filter plus removed the bypass canister and gave it a good cleaning. Had a little brake fluid on the passenger side drum front so pulled both sides. New hub seals and will repack the bearings tomorrow when my seals come in plus new wheel cylinders. I will say those hub seals have...

1954 M37 and yes the horn is back together and working. LOL

I never have used a torque stick. Would be interesting to use one then check it with my big torque wrench. Yea the big torque wrench is not for everybody that maybe only needs it once or twice. Yes 500 bucks is a lot and I have not checked the price of a torque stick. My Milwaukee M18 3/4" drive...
