I helped my buddy put the cargo top on his M36 and it got hung in 2nd gear going back to work. He's pulled the top off the trans and it sounds like the syncro wadded up and chewed up 2nd gear. Here is the question: Can you take it apart and fix it in the truck or do you have to drop the trans...

I'm helping a friend install a bed cover on his M36. The front right stake on the bed is about 3 inches back from the corner. When you set the front bow in, it is caddy cornered because of the side stake arrangement. Do you get another side rack stake to put in that front corner? This is a...

When I got my truck from the DRMO it had a bad starter solenoid. I replaced that one only to have problems keeping the nut tight on the 24v wire from the starter switch. Eventually, that post pulled out and I replaced it again. Now, the newest one has gone south. I used locktite when I put the...

I've got a friend who scored a brand new 1989 m36a2 and is on his way home with it. He has got some type of cargo cover in the cab floor that came with it but no bows. He says the top appears to be a cover to be used on the existing stake body without bows. He believes it to be too short to...

How are you accomplishing this and do you drive it as far back as it will go or is there a preset point to get it on. When I disassembled it the seal was probably a...

What typically happens during the "rebuild" service? I've seen several on GL that have the rebuild and a date thrown in the description. Mine has the little triangle tag that I think represents that. Anybody know if it's a standard list of repairs/replacements?

My deuce has a 33 with a sideways T. I've seen several others at different auctions around the country that have the same "33" with a sideways "v". Anybody know the significance?

My e-brake doesn't hold. The adjuster on the handle is tightened as far as it will travel. I loosened it about half way and crawled under the moose and tightened the adjuster till the brake linings began to touch the drum.

In anticipation of going after my deuce (waiting on paperwork to clear) I called my Interstate battery rep. and told him I needed a pair of 6TL's and he said "I know exactly what you're talking about. He sent over 2 brand new shinney units and they are labeled "U6TL". Anybody have any input if...
