At work we use only SAE 30 in our power wagons, and I do the same with my M37. The only problem is if you are planning on using them during the colder months, the straight 30 weight could turn to sludge if it gets to cold...ours sit all winter so it works fine. In my M37 this past winter, I...

I went from Erving, Mass to Foxboro, Mass in an M1008 last year....according to mapquest that is 89.44 miles, and boy did every one of those SUCK on the interstate! :?

+1!

If the shop can't get the parts (like other people have said) get it back...M37 parts are not that hard to come by! As you know, a 318 is not original...if I were you, I would go with the diesel! That is actually a pretty common mod to make to M37 and their variants. All hope is not lost...

Gentlemen: Since my last update, I've finished rebuilding the rear axle with cleaned and re-packed bearings, all new seals, new wheel cylinders, etc. The whole thing came out EXCELLANT...however I left my camera at work, so no real pictures to show unfortunately. Today, I hacked away at...

Welcome from Leominster, Mass!

Possibly from a civilian pw winch?

Sir, I am kind of far away (In Massachusetts) but I have a very decent non-winch bumper that I will be removing, and willing to trade or sell if you were interested. If you are, just shoot me a PM! Look foward to seeing more pictures as your project progresses

So I had to take the last couple of weeks off due to a severe finger laceration I got at work...but now Im 90% healed, and couldn't wait to jump into the rear end of the truck! Got it jacked up, got the drum off easily. From the pictures you can see how disgusting this part of the truck was...

Yup! Thats most probably the DOD program

This is the normal way, which is FEPP (federal excess property program) or others like it. However there is also DOD (Department of Defense), which operates differently. The department holds onto and maintains the vehicle for 2 years, then the government surrenders the title to them and it is...

Cummington has A LOT of excess property equipment...as you will no doubt see when you go to pick it up. Possible they got it when another town turned it in, so that they could use it for parts. However I do know that District 12 Forest Fire Control had a tanker at one point, which they ended up...

Make sure your plugs are connected to the distributor in the right order as well...this was happening to my truck, turns out they were all messed up...and thats how I bought it!

Building a pole barn?

I just kept cranking the engine over, and it primed.

I think I may have what you want to see...its an exploded view of the rear axle, from a parts manual. You can buy a book of exploded diagrams in soft cover from memphis equiptment...I did, and found it VERY useful as a supplement to my tech manual... Its large resolution, so right click, and...

I am fairly certain that in our state (Mass) anything over a certain weight MUST be registered as a commercial vehicle...unless you register it as historic as Engine5 suggested. While getting the title to my M37 at the registry, the gentleman next to me was having an issue which I couldn't...

Contact Charles Talbert at M-Series Rebuild, he gave me a very fair price this past fall on a new MC for my '52 M37 the Model # of the MC is F544

haha thanks! I was a bit disappointed to see NOS myself when I got it...fortunately however, it was a rubber seal not leather which I expected, and dreaded

Alright so today I set out to finish the front axle re-build once and for all. I actually wanted to mention, that I did NOT HAVE A SEAL on the driver's side front axle...strange, but true. The brass cup and cone were there, and popped right out when I removed the shaft, but no seal. Well, I...
