I had to do it around 8 times to get it to be polarize and start charging. I have no idea why it took so many times.

Also, the Dana 60 front axle has the leaf spring mount cast into the center housing. Moving it towards the center of truck to add a weld on leaf mount would put the differential near the middle of the truck - no good. Narrowing a Dana 60 is not complicated. Cut axle tube at knuckle, knock out...

Anyone have a lunette for a WWii 1-ton Ben Hur trailer? I have 3 trailers and 1 correct lunette.

The website says this show is an indoor sale - which I suspect is an error for 2 reasons. First, the fall show is both indoor and outside with a nice mix of MV vendors and hobby sellers. And second, the website has the dates off by 1 for the weekend. I suspect it is both an indoor and outdoor...

My son and I will be there looking for Ben Hur trailer stuff. If anyone needs Dodge WC/M37 differentials, let me know ASAP and I can bring them to the show Saturday. I have a M37 pto as well...

If you upgrade to the crank up landing wheel setup, I could use your single wheel - if unbent, to replace mine. The dent in the o.d. is ok.

I have the blueprints for the M24A2 and M24A3. They are readily available in either US Army manual TM 9-224 or TM 9-8030. I can check tomorrow. They leave out the height on the pintal vertical pipe - which I have as well. I think I got them from the Carlisle US Army War College Library - it...

Wow that snuck up fast!! My wife asked last night we (son & I) were going. That remains to be seen as $$ is very low and the project list is very long.

Also, keep an eye out for M101a1 trailer axles. When I lubed my M101 bearings - I was suprised to see new axle nuts and shoes. The lining was ~ 7/16" thick - much more than on all the M37's used used I have used. Sadly, my local shoe reliner went out of business years ago. NAPA had them as B-89...

I think that was it Gordon. The original photo had a larger shot of the city square as I recall.

Nice shots of the data plate - thanks. If you're using a 6" L mount bracket -what WWII Dodge truck do you have? Anything is posible, but thiis is news to me as the 6" L bracket was only used on post WWII M37s as far as I know. Maybe someone swapped a M24A3 onto your WWII Dodge and put a M24A2...

Frt hubs procedure is the same as the rear. It is a good idea to replace the brass front axle bushings just inside the knuckles while you are there. The 40+ yrs old bushings are likely worn out, causing leaks and excess axle wear. Ft lbs on the inner nut? Sorry, not spec on hand (I could...

Ditto. We got 12" by me. It is amazing how neighbors suddenly like the M37 w/ plow when it comes time to clear the ends of their driveways (repeatedly) after the town trucks plow the street. I took some photos. They look just like yours though as I copied your plow frame setup. :)

Classic hub seal leak . . . Congrats - that is a classic hub seal failure leaking rear end oil. The seal is simple to replace - you just need a 3/8" and 9/16" open end wrenches to pull the axle and a little silicone for the seal flange. Repack the hub bearings w/ grease while you are there -...

The DMV in PA treated GL as a dealer when I registered my M101a1 trailer.

IW85 - I sent you a PM.

IronWolf85 - I could convoy with you on the East shore on I81 anywhere between Harrisburg and Hershey as I as driving up from E-Town or you could take Rt 30 to Rt 441 North (basically past my house) and then we convoy North through E-town & Hershey to RC (same or slightly shorter distance than...

I am planning for Sat-> Sunday. However, that depends on the weather. My 10 year old son is upset about the possibility of not going. I will be watching the weather - I'm < 1 hour away, so can pop over easily. EDIT: We WILL be going rain or shine Saturday. I will bring firewood. I doubt I...
