Threw both alt belts this morning, had bought new ones when i first got the truck and lazilly threw them behind the seat. At first i thought, OH NO, the vibration dampener let go by all the racket it made. I cut them off the fan clutch hub with diag cutter and replaced the belts. A 20 min...

u got bugs, Actually Cyanobacteria, they actually eat diesel fuel. I would drain the tank and change the filter. Add 5gal of fuel to the tank and treat with Racor diesel biocide. RACADT2116 16oz treats 1600gal. If you don't drain the tank and Don't kill all the algae it will be an ongoing...

See my windshield washer upgrade on page 136 post #1353. It covers the windshield with fluid unlike the old setup.

One thing you can do with that PTO is put a hydraulic pump on it and run any stationary hyd tool, like a monster log spliter. Run hoses out back with quick couplers.

Was the suburban diesel? There was two 700r4's, gas and diesel. I know this as my rebuilder asked me that very question before tearing into mine. U will need a diesel 700 and a no more than a 1600 stall DIESEL converter to do the swap right. U can also put a diesel valve body in a gas 700 if it...

the 700r4 will have 16 bolts on the pan, Hotrodders.com has a great thread on identifing the 700r4.

31's are the way to go, more bang for your buck. U can lose the box if u have no need for it. It's a great upstate NY tool shed, LOL.

Nice clean unit, good luck!:smile:

M1031 late engine shutdown No supplied relay w Derale cooler, strange right? I plumbed the cooler as a stand alone setup deleting the radiator cooler thinking this might help cool the engine in hot weather and simplifing the install, no hot trans oil running through it. I may use it as a power...

Thats great, No controller. Mine was pricy $165.00. My trans was also out of a civvy truck with the wrong converter. the 700r4 is a big upgrade, but you have to know what your doing when you make the swap, obviously you do. Most guys think they can shove any r4 behind a 6.2, not so. It also has...

Hea doghead, I used one of the three ign controled terminals on the left side of the fuse box. I also wired the converter lockup controller for the trans on the second of the three terminals. The controller has a reostat to control lockup sensitivity, Could that have anything to do with it? I...

Take a look at what 1008s 1009s are being bid for, run hard, put away wet. a lot of them have been canniblised for parts. Pickins are getting slim, Bring your tool box.

What a great story, and price considering what beat to death 1008 and 1009s are being bid for on GL. A few clean 1031s are trickeling through for $7000k plus. It's at a point where all that's left is, no key, does not start, missing parts trucks. My M1031 is a super clean 99% rust free truck and...

After installing a fan driven aux trans oil cooler my engine keeps running for about 10 seconds after I turn the key switch off. I reversed the polarity on the wires to make the fan run backwards, As per derale's instructions, this can be done. I know running a DC motor backwards it becomes a...

HoJoPo, Do u have your converter lockup controller hooked up? I have mine setup to lock up in 2-3-4, It seems to run better. For your fuel door, get a lock cyl off one of those key lock boxes. Putting a lock and hasp would take away from that trick looking door u installed.

Thats a lot of truck for the money, spec that truck today, probably arround 60k plus. That is if you can get the lockers and suspension the M1031 has and you won't get the np205 w pto either. Great service truck for an excavator or quarry operation where lets say a GMC 6500 might be too big to...

Installed my rebuilt 700r4 today. I did most of the install work myself, only needing help wresteling the bolder like np205 in place. Skinned a few knuckles and skulled myself a little but in the end it all worked out. Thanks to A&A transmission of thornwood NY for a custom heavy duty rebuild...

Check out Electric fuel pump mod by top prop, as i think you have a fuel delivery problem, a weak or failing mech fuel pump. Also check out, CUCV Spin on filter mod by pawnshop. Stock fuel filter housings are also known to fail. The threads by these guys are informative and complete with...

700R4 rebuild I got my trans back from the rebuilder today, $977.00 in parts, $760.00 in labor.aua All HD internals. Fabed up mounts and lines for Derale external cooler and remote spin on filter. Ran wires for B&M converter lockup control. Installing trans tomorrow.

running on wmo I have a question for doghead, How can wmo be filtered enough to run through a non multi fuel engine without any problems? I also run good quality diesel in my truck and would never consider running contaminated oil, wich that is what wmo really is. My union local has a waste...
