Has anybody converted the Hobart G-204 welder that comes in the M-887 service body from gas to propane? I have a low hour unit I use mainly for backup 120v power, and mild welding I'd like to convert, and having a hard time finding a kit. The welder itself is powered by a Wisconsin VG-4D 4cyl...

Those that have had to replace your master cylinder in the last couple years, have you had issues with them leaking, and not lasting very long? Running a CUCV master/hydro booster on my M37, and have replaced the master twice now due to a leak, usually out the back side between the master and...

Working on finishing the wiring on my 6.2l swapped M37. Having trouble finding the specs on the stock 24v HMMWV glow plugs, to properly size a fuse for the main hot wire to the solenoid. Here's my layout 2- group 31 batteries under the pass seat, 4 ga wire ran from the batteries to the glow...

Id like to wire a short pigtail, or a junction box into the SECM so I can power the air compressor either by the generator or by plugging it into a wall outlet. I've heard of guys doing this, however I'm not positive how they wired them without back feeding to the generator. There is a large...

Anybody done it successfully, something they would be confident with every time you took your truck out? I'm in the middle of swapping a 6.2 diesel into my M37, and the throttle pedal kit in using is designed for a carb, or an engine with just a hole in the linkage, not a stud like the 6.2...

Tore out the front springs from my '53 M37 so I could get them re-arched and rebuilt for 2"lift. Noticed upon removal the pins were worn, as well as the bushings them selves. Ive got new pins, bushings and outer shackles order and headed my way, have some NOS inner shackles on my shelf waiting...

So I bought this oil cooler from the local Surplus store, guy didn't know what it fit, or from what vehicle it was from. Made a deal and came home with it. Trying to use it as the oil cooler for my M37 project, but running into issues with the thread size on the cooler itself. NSN #...

Thanks to Derrickl112, finally have that M66 ring on hand. Next order of business is to build some armor for it. Looking to build armor that covers 360 degrees, with ballistic glass front and back. With steel sides, that can be modified with glass as more is aquired. Question is, how exactly...

I'm getting ready to reseal my tcase, and been thinking on how to install these on the shift rails, and where at? I know these guys aren't long enough to cover all positions, so I assume I install them when the shafts are at 2hi position. Thanks

Hey guys, I'm currently working on repowering my M37 with a 6.2l out of a HMMWV. Looking to see what others have run as far as new radiators? My stock one is pretty rotted out, and I doubt it would cut it anyways keeping this thing cool. I have measured the old one, and the closest I've been...

Hey Guys, I'm helping a friend replicate an MRAP and we have a few q's about the gun ring/mount. 1st: Which mount is the correct mount for an MRAP? An M66, LWS, or other. We've been told it uses the same mount as a HMMWV, Duece and 5Ton 2nd: Is this mount even avaliable for civilian hands...

Hopefully you genny guys can help. Threw a guy at work, I have come across a PE-95-K Gen set. The seller isn't sure what it's worth, but looking to sell it as his father passed away, and the family no longer has a use for the unit. So far, he hasn't found the service records, but he said when...

So after hoping to get by with just bolting the disc brakes on and repacking the wheel bearings, I found the pass side needed new kingpins, as the tire had a goofy wear pattern to it, and the lower kingpin is loose. After reading the TM, it calls out for a brass/bronze upper cone, and a lower...

If somebody can help identify this part, would be helpful. While its not an M880 series truck, the wiring is the same, and its essentlly an M890 with fancy paint, right :) Recently bought a '78 Dodge D200 Adventurer. While going over the post buy checklist, I noticed an extra something...

Need some info/help on a 1981 American Coleman Tug. Mainly we're looking for a manual for said tug, along with identifying a throttle/linkage part. We're having a problem with the throttle linkage, mainly it has no return, you have to manually pull the pedel back to idle. We replaced a broken...

Was there a boarding ladder for the M37, similar to what the Duece has? I'm looking to build one for the M37 I'm working on, for ease of getting into the bed. If so, anybody have any pics? Would like to have it look somewhat authentic is possible. What about a mount, or did it just "float" in...

While doing some sheetmetal work on an M37, I noticed that the passenger side toolbox had rusted out. After doing some online searchs for a replacement, I came up empty. So I decided to dis-engineer the rusty one and build my own. I decided to build 2, one for each side, since you can't have one...

I reciently took in a fellow SS'ers M37 project to help out with some sheetmetal/body work, and along with some other minor issues, we're in the process of installing a new igniton switch. We suspect the old one is the culprit, but the one currently in the truck isn't original, and I'm not...

I reciently reinstalled the 37" HMMWV tires back onto my M887. I had been running around all summer on a set of 235/85/16 tires, but needed those back for another truck. Since then, I have developed a growl that I cannot find. I originally reinstalled the 37's on the same side, same wheel, but...

I currently run an M887 as my personal shop/welder truck for my welding/fab buisness. I am wondering if the Hobart Welder/Generator can be converted to run 220v. The tag lists the genny as a 4kw, and it only offers 110v now, but am interested in being able to run 220v tools like a plasma...
