Water pump question

Post by M38A1 MP Jeep » Sat Nov 15, 2014 11:02 am

Changing my water pump on my M38.

Paint it - yes or no?
I am seeking information on M38A1's configured for MP use from 1953-?.

I am also interested in equipment and uniforms worn and carried by MP's during this timeframe.

If it ain't O.D., paint it. Over the years I have opened new 800002 G-740/G-758 waterpumps in GI wrapper in Red Oxide, 24087, and bare metal.
