fuel sending unit

Would an M151 fuel sending unit be a suitable replacement for the (totally FUBAR) unit in my M37? The M151 units seem to be more available than the M37 units, which I'm having trouble finding.

Which manual covers removal and replacement of the pump itself (my TM 9-8030 hardly even makes passing reference to the oil pump). I've got TM 9-1840A that c...

Step up piston needed

Does anyone have a good step-up piston and spring assembly for a Ball and Ball carb from a '53 M37? I got one rebuild kit that had everything but, and all the dealers I've spoken with will only sell the piston with another kit @ $59.00; I'd hate to buy another complete kit just for that part.

M37 Newby

I'm brand-new to the M37 scene, having just purchased a fairly complete 1953 model at an estate sale; so if anyone has any advice for a newby, I'm all ears! At this time the truck isn't running, as the previous owner had carb problems and removed it, and it sat for four years until I picked it up a ...
