    IP Troubles?

    Not that I know much about these...but: If you end up wanting to put a new head on it, I still have that new one in the box that I tried to send to Bjorn when he was deadlined during his trip to CA. UPS found it and returned it (a month later...). Good luck with it.

    Head Gasket

    Not really. There is a slight difference between the various Dodge 230 cu in flatheads so you need to make sure that you get the right gasket, but otherwise, there is no reason not to get it locally. ENGINE HEAD GASKET WITH HUMP Napa 1059C Victor 1059C Felpro 7564C

    Mermite can in Jerry can holder

    I agree, save the Mermite for holding your drinks for after the climb... With the inserts removed, you can put in 24 12oz cans and plenty of ice... Use an ammo can for the climbing gear...

    CHECK YOUR STACK!!!!!

    My M35A2C has a flapper on it (ex USAF truck). The M35A2 lives with a bean can on the stack (love to see it go flying when the truck is cranked up in the morning...). We should line everyone up at Aberdeen and go for distance and accuracy... :)

    OK, I have put Tony Casey into the spots that I got from BlythewoodJoe. David Doyle will be using a table at my spot to hawk his books (and the extra convoy shirts). Kenny will be bunking with me assuming that his flight and rental plans work out... Other than that, the big list above looks...

    Okay - so I'm now an M37 owner...

    Hey, it looks better than you described it... The tailgate looks nice (and it does have the MWO applied), and you can't see the rust in the bottom of the doors in the photos... :) You will need to talk to John Winslow about getting a set of Michelins for it, or talk me out of the Grip Spurs...

    Socket size for Lug Nuts

    The M37, M101, M101A1, M104, M105, M35, M1061 all use the same size Budd 1 1/2" hex. The M1061 leveling jacks and spare tire carier use the 13/16" Budd square thimble. Getting a few of the combination sockets for use with your air wrench or Craftsman is a good thing (I cary one in each truck...

    Sorry Folks!

    Kenny, you fly in, and we'll find a spot for you to sleep... I'm taking both the M35 and the M37, and they both can sleep quite a few folks between them... Heck, I'll even toss a cot and one of my spare sleeping bags in the truck for you if you'd like...

    You're transmission needs some TLC. You should not be grinding anything. Check the slop in the ball at the top of the tower (where the shift lever is attached) as well as slop in the shift rails first. ABLinn has the complete rebuild kits for the first series transmissions as well as NOS...
