Much love and prayers to your family from your G741 family. Please reach out if we can help in any way!

Always better to have the pump pumping oil from the start so you don't scorch any internals waiting for the oil pressure to build.

The governor adjustment is also featured in the Dave Ahl M37 Resto guide.

Correction here to John Mc and All: the spare tire mount DID exist on the M43 Ambulance, so it IS possible that the pictured truck could have been converted to the door-mounted spare. Unfortunately, no way to tell from the photo.
Thanks,
Gary

Most all hardtops do not fit with the channel loop in place. I also have a spare set of the soft top horizontal pieces 2 each that sit up top. PM me if interested.
Thanks,
Gary

Yes, but not during Korea-the door mount spare didn't exist.
Gary

Welcome Dave and thanks for sharing your story!
That picture would NOT be during Korea as that M37 is a B1 model based on the side-mounted spare. B1s were built post-Korea with that conflict ending in 1953.

Happy New Year Dicktater and welcome back!
Gary

Indeed-Happy New Year!
Gary

Cool, but that's just a modified M37, not the XM711 wrecker on the M37 platform.
Gary

Hope Santa brought everything you were wanting!
Gary

Ouch! Nothing cheap these days.
Gary

Sorry can't help-I run the stock MC.
Gary

Sorry for the delay but welcome aboard! Glad to hear another M37 saved.
Gary

Looks like it-well done, and you're welcome!
