I know the M37 wheels will fit the 1/2 tonner. BTDT.
I did not know if the 1/2 tonner wheels fit the M37. I've seen it done with 900x16 tires, but that doesn't make it right. BTW, the M37 set up that way looked strange because of that, too. You couldn't run dualies with 900x16 tires anyway, so why do it? Unless you want to run 750x16, and then boy, that REALLY would look odd due to the small tire size.
You mention to buy the correct dualie wheels for an M37. Does someone actually make them? As I mentioned in a post further down in this string, I have a fire department made (cobbled) set of M37 Budd dualies free for anyone who wants them. Be forewarned, they are ugly. But they work. The fenders on this M37 were drilled for fender extensions.
