I own a m1031 with a long bed on the back. I ordered a new bed mounting bolt set from LMC but it only included 2 "long" bolts which are not quite long enough to bolt all the way through the frame. Look to be about an inch shorter then 1 long bolt that was on the truck when I got it. I need...

I was able to free the drive shaft from the yoke... I think I will replace the u joint while I have it apart. Any certain brand / quality or will autozone do? what size is that Pinion nut? 37mm? huge? back to the parts house :)

I Need to Replace Leaky rear pinion Seal and I cant remove the u-joint! I need to replace a leaky rear pinion seal... I removed the u-joint retainer bolts but the drive shaft will not budge. The TM says not to hit the drive shaft or pry in the u joint to free the shaft ? How do I remove it...

Yes thats is exactly what I am talking about! Basic measurments would be great! Interested in selling them?

I own a m1031 with a long bed and need to find the spacers for the extra long bed mounting bolts. I was searching through the tms to find the bolt torque and i see that there are spacers that fit into the U channeled frame to prevent the frame from bending. Any clue on the size of this...

This is a test post.

Paint Removal I just finished a little DiY frame restore on my M1031. If your goal is to get to bare metal then start with some aircraft paint stripper (buy the largest container ... i bought mine at autozone) it should be a Gel stripper not the aerosol. Wait about 20 min. and then scrap off...

I got the snap ring out! Just wanted to give an update in case anyone else runs into this issue. I used a dremel tool to grind the snap ring 180 degrees from the split. Once the ring is thin enough you can just use some pliers to remove it!

M1031 - wheel bearing removal I am going to replace the rear wheel bearings, races, hone the drums and replace the brakes and wheel cylinders. I removed the Inner bearing seal, bearing and race with the autozone puller. When i tried to remove the snap ring for remove the outter bearing and...

Please help PTO hanging in mid air ! Well I was finally able to get the PtO off of the transfer case, but I can not disconnect the pto from the shaft or remove one of the u-joint pins. Please advise which to remove. I removed the allen set screw from the shaft coller but the coller will not...

search for cucv electric on ebay ... $79.00 hope it works

Thanks for the pics Dave ... I have to wait for my mini angle wrench to be delivered before I can get the to pto flange bolt out.. And then remove everything in a few weeks time.

Ha ha .. In the garbage .. What was the common failure point the board itself? Hopefully the one from cucv electric will be more robust.

ThanKa the ziptie idea is a good one .. I think I'll try that... I just wanted to secure it because I know how electronics hate vibrations (especially sodered connections) .. I still wonder where it was originally mounted... Since the wireharness is short it can't be all that far away from the...

When I bought the truck the glowe plugs were wired up to a manual switch.. I purchases an installed a new board from cucv electric (works great thx guys) and had to re wire the system (the glow plug relay was installed upside down ... The secondary leads were on the right terminals but the...

Ok I will just knock out the pins from the u joint and take off the pto and drive shaft for now and leave the pulley and in the brace till I remove the bed. By the way I forgot the link to the wrench VIM AW14M VIM Durstan Speciality Tools 14mm Miniature Angle Metric Flat Wrench - 15- &...

Thanks for the info about the jack screws ... I assume my pulley has them as well. I'll check that out Djerek.. Thanks for the info about the shaft being a pita to remove.. I will remove the truck bed (gotta clean up some surface rust in the frame and weld / seal some of the bed seams back...

Or one of those curved cresent wrenches may work! Ill got to the local napa or sears and see if can find something that might work any thoughts?

Well I was able to loosen 5/6 pto flange bolts. The one on the top is tough. You have to have the cresent wrench in a vertical position in order to access the bolt. this can not be done since the clearance between the pto and the floor pan is about 3 inches. I guess I would need a very...

i do not want to separate the drive shaft from pulley as long as I can remove the shaft and pulley (together) from the truck. I don't mind leaving the mounts, but def want to remove the pto + shaft + drive pulley from the underside of the truck. I was afraid to remove the pto bolts first as I...
