Just saw this post, sorry for the late response but I believe the dist. is from a PE95 "I" series generator which was powered by a 134 Jeep engine. I know the picture quality is poor but it does seem to show the same kind of unit.
M37 reprint manuals, including the one you are looking for, are available from Dennis Spence @

That unit appears to be a PE 95-F which is powered by a Willys-Overland MB Mod. 441 engine governed to 1,200 RPM making 20.5 HP. The generator is a 5KW unit, 120/240, 60cyc AC with an 80% power factor. The overall weight of the set is 1545lbs. making it an extremely heavy set when compaired to a...
Nice job you're doing, I see the rest of the truck is orig. military and very much worth saving. Yours is more complete than the the truck I have begun restoring which needs a lot of help and something other than red paint.
I also have a snow blower Nick but the old heavy thing about beats me silly, no chains for it and I spend as much time pushing the heavy bastard into the snow as it does blowing it away and more often than not the wind shifts and blows it back on me. aua
When I push with the blade the snow...
It's a little late to be posting before the Blizzard comments but I've been very busy getting ready for and dealing with the storm. We have 28" of the stuff and I have cleared the snow from my driveway as well as the neighbors who clean their cars and hope for me to show up. The M37 only does...
You are correct, "--life just don't get much better than that!! " I plow my driveway then the driveways of the two ladies near me that need help, one has no husband and has a broken leg and the other, a 85 yr old who just lost her husband, then I come home to a batch of warm cookies and a fire...
You got that right Chad, the red one is in need of money and work being spent on it and not on an electric set-up for a plow rig that maybe sees action once every 3 or 4 years when the snow is to deep for my blower. However I am pleased that someone is so concerned about the amount of time I...
Yup, lots of clutch work, instead of money into bank account from pay check, money out of bank account for 24V winch, then more money out for battery and alternator and wiring upgrade, then wife out of her mind because I spent so much on a rig used once every couple of years. It might not be the...
Plowing isn't the only reason I hang on to it, but it sure helps, it's become an old friend over the 23 years of very part time work and the thousands of dollars it took to do a complete restoration.
Carter's M37 Restoration pictures from military photos on webshots
Yeah, the neighbors also like me and the M when heavy snow causes them to have to do a lot of shoveling and like you said when "it comes time to clear the ends of their driveways", lots of wet and heavy snow and ice to lift its "Hey Carter old buddy can you help me?"
The NDTs are ok for the...
Wolf.Dose,
I don't go on salted roads, this thing had enough rust to be repaired when I found it and I don't need any more to be patched.

srodocker & Boss Doug,
What light, where? This one...
Just measured them and the shackle eyes are 15/16" and the pins are slightly smaller, more like 7/8" I got these 20+ years ago off of the front of a M 135 wreck at Winers, I just wasn't sure they are the correct ones and what you need.
