    For those commenting about the choice of oil, learn your facts before jumping to your keyboard with conclusions. 10W40 has two different properties. The “w” stands for winter, not weight. In cold weather, the oil acts as 10 weight. Once it has warmed, it acts as 40 weight. The variation of molecules allows for this to occur. When warm, I am running 40 weight. Which is thicker than straight 30 weight, with the benefit of cold weather properties. SAE 30 was recommended by Dodge in the 1950s. Oil technology back then was not what it is today.

      10W40 or 15W40 is right for such an old engine :-)
      Maybe you want to do short oil changes with cheap oil to flush out the old stuft Insider the engine block..
      Oil turns to goo after wsuch stop times

      Tell 'em straight brother.
      In the late 70's oil was oil.
      In the 80's they "improved' it along with petrol/gas the combination killed many older engines, including two of mine.

    That dark red stuff is Glyptal, an insulating varnish which is very tough. The military was really big on it in WW2. I believe it is made by GE. Positive or negative ground makes no difference to the starter, and the generator and most regulators can be re-polarized as you wish. I see an ignition ballast resistor on the firewall, which suggests to me a 12 volt conversion, as 6 volt systems did not use one. And by the way, 12 volt coils will work fine on 6 volts without the resistor. I remember Delco starters and generators having different color nameplates for different voltages, red, orange and black. I think the orange ones were 24 volts, and red were 6 volts, but I'm not sure...that was over 50 years ago!

    Have the same truck, built it for my son as a graduation present. Has 4bt Cummings with nv4500. Chevy 1 ton axles and 37" tires. Gets 22 mpgs and rides smooth as can be. Did I mention the twin procomp coil overs up with a parallel 4 link suspension. Was a fun build and I donated all parts not reused to a guy restoring his to original condition. Love these old dodges

    • @timsaxer6442
      @timsaxer6442 4 года назад +1

      @Fred Gift. Not true. Most motorcycle oils have the high zinc content these old engines need as the EPA does not limit it like auto oils. Higher zinc than diesel oils.

      @415s30 Год назад

      I have a 52' as well, but it was in the Army Corps of Engineers after the Army and then a federal fire fire department where they converted it to 12v. They put in a hidden battery disconnect too. I'm doing a 4BT swap soon, I did disks up front, power steering and I swapped the gears to 4.89 before, but it's time to go all the way so I can really get out there. I found some new 1100r16 XZL tires so it should roll pretty well between than and the gear swap.

    I have a 1952 M37 with 29,000 original miles and when I first started it smoked like It was a war time smoke generator. Turned out that the piston rings were broken on two cylinders. I removed the head, oil pan and pistons, honed the cylinders and installed new rings. Completely solved the smoke problem.

    Early M37s were 6v before the switch to 24v early in the production run. I have a 52 as well with a delivery date of 1-8-52 and its 24. Willing to bet the 24v system it had originally was swapped for an easier to maintain/run/charge/jump 6v system out of an older 37 or cobbled together from available parts.
    However, on closer inspection of the engine layout, it is most likely a civilian 6cyl salvaged from another truck and swapped in. Many of the military fittings are missing/relocated and the engine color itself is a big giveaway. Data plate on the passenger side of the block will indicate if it is at least a military motor.
    Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the only two engine options for the M37 were the 230 and the 251. All CDN versions had the 251.

    Every body has their favorite and hated products, guess that is why so many sell. Glad to see you are doing a lead additive of some kind for the valves. If it is still smoking you can try diesel oil straight weight with one quart of number 2 fuel oil, sounds scary but it the diesel oil has zinc and stuff in it, most do anyways. The number 2 diesel will clean the rings and still carry the dirt away from the top. I just run it till it is hot then drive it or run it through varied RPM for a few hundred miles or till the oil is really nasty. You will want a filter on it and a bucket under the filter when you mess with it can help catch anything that spills. That would be fun to drive around hope the rest is in good shape for you. New sub, stay safe.

    I've had quite a few m37s, the last one was titled as a 1968. In the 80-early 90s $4-900 would buy a complete vehicle that took a min of wk to run. Always had to go through the brakes. Vintage power wagons used to have everything. Great old trucks especially with the winch. They had double output ptos for hydraulics or another winch. Are those trucks scarce and expensive? Sounds great, hope you put some love into it. Thanks for the memories, glad I found you.

    My Dad bought a 52 Dodge Power Wagon back in the early 70's. He gave $50.00 for it and 50 cents for a brand new spare tire. It had been an old military ambulance in it's former life. I drove that thing everywhere for years. Hunting and fishing in it all over southern New Mexico. It disappeared one day and I asked my Dad what happened to it and he said he sold it. I was so disappointed, I loved that thing. He said he would have given it to me if he had known I like it so well. He was just tired of it sitting at his place. I mean it was at my house more than it was at his. And I was the only one who ever drove it.... Oh well....

    I just bought 2 M37CDN winch models from Ft. McMurray, Alberta. A 52, and a 54. The CDN variant has a different drive line, using the Crysler 251 flathead rather than the US that ran the Dodge 230. Both my trucks (and Canadian military manuals) have these as 24v. The winch, t-case, and transmission are also different from the US version, but essentially similar-ish. One is going back as stock as I can get it, the other will be getting a diesel, and drivetrain upgrade to make it more driveable, particularly on the highway. Good luck with yours!

    STP oil treatment is an old solution to very worn engines. As a kid I heard an old Ford tractor respond to STP poured into it. The Idle speed went up as it was poured in. An engine rebuilder friend of my dad said he could tell an STP engine. An STP Engine would have oil in the top end, reducing startup wear. Good Luck and Gosd bless you.

    That is very cool. We had several of those in the weapons carrier configuration that we used as crew trucks between upper and lower bases. Drove one every night taking the chow hall girls back to their homes in Da Nang.

    MANY of these were bought from military surplus by rural/volunteer fire departments and repurchased to be "woods and brush firefighting rigs." Many VFDs in my home county used them as such a few decades ago. They were virtually unstoppable...

    Love your vids. I was in the Canadian Militia back in the 70's Many of theses old girls in the Army Camps for the Army Reserves. We use to jump in these and go for a boot around the camp. Later they used many of these flat head engines in commercial trolling fishing boats in West Coast British Columbia. Chrysler Crown and Chrysler Ace the straight 8 was the Royal. Bottom line it was a bonus if the oil was even changed at all on any regular service. Love the vids keep em going. High ^ 5

    You should bring the cable over the top in front and put a blade on front and make a snow plow.
