This is not a historical restore so it's a low priority item. The hole just bugs me.
Eventually I'll find one or figure something out.

Re: New to me '52 M37
Changed the plugs and tossed the resistance wires for solid core. The .mil distributor had the waterproof cap removed to expose the inner cap and had regular wires. Now I know why. The waterproof wires are expensive! Ended up making a custom length set. 8mm wires fit perfectly into the inner cap tow...

Re: Turn Signals not working
I have redone all the grounds and replaced bulbs. I checked all connections and cleaned and reconnected. I have lights in all the right places but no flashing. Still have the .mil flasher unit? Swap it for a 24v civilian flasher. A two pole will work. There are 3 wires going to the.mil flasher, one...

Winch Hole Plug
Has anyone successfully found a plug for the winch lever hole in the drivers floor? Just doesn't seem right to tack weld a cover..
What have you used, if anything?

Re: New to me '52 M37
Pertronix units don't like copper plug wires Confused... This is a MIL distributor. I was told if you have the military waterproof distributor, metallic core (copper) cables are preferred. If your distributor has been replaced with a civilian type distributor, a non metallic core cable must be used...

Re: New to me '52 M37
Next question:
There are AC Delco R45 plugs in it now. The previous owner used regular wires from the .mil distributor.
The points have been changed to the Pertronix module. Any suggested change in plugs or gap?

Maybe next year I'll get the beast started and get there. It's only 1.5hrs by car, 3hrs by M37.

Re: New to me '52 M37
Raining here but the want to drive around the lake is tempting. A 1.5hr drive would be great at 80deg.

Re: New to me '52 M37
Got the signals figured out. The mil flasher and controller were toast.. swapped them out for a Signal Stat 900 and a 3 pin LED compatible flasher. Previous owner had two wires active when the brake switch is closed which screwed up the stop lamps. Wired and labled! Took off the old mechanical fuel ...

Re: Filament to LED Light Bulbs??
The Stop/Turn bulbs can be changed with a LED 1156 rated at 12-24v. Since the Mil housings don't have reflected interiors be sure to get the ones with LEDs on the end. 20240410_075521.jpg Output is a little brighter than the dual filament bulb. At least there's some draw reduced on the minimal 25a g...
