Hello WC, Yea I just wanted it to stop leaking and I have bought and installed the NOS stuff from the surplus places with no luck stopping leaks, I can say that the yokes were my biggest problem. They were pitted and causing the new seals to wear out rather quickly so the speedy sleeves saved...

The M37 is probally the most universal truck ever built for the Military, it could be configured to adapt to any climate. even to adapt to the carbon footprint it leaves :roll: just joking as I don't do the fake global warming deal, I have owned many of these trucks for the last 25 years and I...

Ironically I have been looking into the same retrofit, I measured out a M35 top and this is a doable mod. I located a cheap top so when I start doing the chop I'll post the cuts and progress when I start. I have been looking for a artic top for about 2 years with no luck, the GMC top sucks, I...

Yea, I'm done with the factory tank in my M37. They are becoming to hard to find and get to work anymore, Mine is leaking at the spot welds on the bottom and I am sick of patching it up with the repair kits so I am gong to build me a custom tank and fit into my M37. I found a tank out of a M101...

Thanks for the replies, I am going to pass on the supposive M880 I was told about, it turned out to be just a plain W200, I did locate the troop seats & bows for the M880 and a set for the M715 a set for my M101 & the M37 here close to me so I picked them all up as I can use the M37 ones and...

Hello :) I was looking into picking up a M880 and I was wondering how hard is it to locate the troop seats & top bows ? also what a set up would cost me. I think I know where a rear cover is so the framework would be the hard part, if I could pick up the accessories still I might be tempted...

Well with only 2 replies I guess I have nothing to worry about :D I'm still going to pack the long axle with me, I have a 800 mile journey fully loaded with my radio shelter & pulling a M101 full of goodies here in 5 weeks. I should by next year have my center diff rear installed then I can do...

Hello fellow M37'ers I test drove my M37 again today after my transfer reseal and I have some good results to share. I climbed some hills and worked (lugged) the piss out of it, ran it down the HWY @ 3500 RPMs ( love the V8 ) and then took my thermogun and did some temperature checks. What a...

Hello everyone, I have heard over the years from my Vet friends that the M37's like to break axles, well I am asking you fellow M37 owners if you have ever had a axle break on you ? I have been told it was the long one, if so. Do you concur with the long one breaking ? I have a very good...

Hi, I have power steering on my M37, if you are having wobble your knuckle bushing/bearings are bad providing you used the original idler arm assembly and kept the original lower steering arm. I have owned many of these trucks and I can tell you if you have steering wobble it is your knuckle...

Hi Jon, I tried to access your convoy page and it wouldn't open for me so I am not asking a stupid question. What day are you all rolling out ? We are planing to leave Barstow ( hwy 58 ) Sunday the 18th and run up the 99, I don't like the 5. I'm driving my M37 w/m101 and Keith is towing his...

Hi, That is a sharp set up you have there. I was enjoying the shelter inside shot, back around 1973 I used to play in one of those. I remember the scope on the amplifier and key board, there was a Armory next to our school in Thousand Oaks and we ( Kids) would sneak in there during lunch break...

First off thank you all for the nice replies about my WC56, When I was little I became indulged to someday own a Command Car, I grew up in the L.A. area and "back in the day" my family would go to Universal Studios. There on the "back lot" tour I saw a hurt looking Command Car, I would dream...

Hi all, I have a 1959 s-152 shelter and it was a AN/MRC-60, I am looking for any information on this unit. It has no more radio gear but I would like to know the history on these systems. I did find it was upgraded to a AN/MRC-62 then to a 63 and was used with the AN/TRC-27 teletype, also any...
