Good catch. There 12 in the bag. I have one on top and bottom of each bolt.

I really liked your write up. I have followed all the steps for mounting so far. I am ready to start putting all the bumper brackets on loosely. I made two bolt location changes that I think will work better for me. I drilled out the outboard rivet holes and used 1/2” bolts. Then I drilled two...

I wonder… maybe I can get a C-clamp on where the captive nut is and squeeze the sides enough to back out the bolts?

Cool. Thank you. I won’t be able to use that idea though. I had the floor pans replaced and the welder was not the best at restoration welding. He did not weld the pans back to the supports. I am going to try using 1/4” square rod. I will bend a piece long enough to reach past the captive nut...

Thank you! I had not thought of the flap idea.

Happy Sunday! I am in need of some visual assistance please. I am in the process of changing all 6 body mounts on my M1031. The left front under the radiator support was coming apart. On the passenger side I am not able to remove the bolts under the cab. I believe the nut inside the cab...

I did have some success on my dad’s 06 rabger. He wanted bigger mirrors. I found some for a 2000 gmc sierra at the local yard. We made adapter plates to mount them. Much better view bow! Before Created a template and the brackets

Well, here I am, having the most fun ever! I have some body mount bolts that are spinning. I guess the solution is to cut a hole in the floor to get access? What about the bolts at the back of the cab? How do I get access to them? thanks everyone!

Sir, it looks new again. From every angle and every view it is once again a new M1009. You have created a new M1009. I enjoy looking at the work you have done, it inspires me to try harder.

I was going to set it up with a remote oil tank with inline filter and an electric pump.

I was going to do that to my 96 Ranger 5.0 but life had other ideas.

Has anyone ever considered running a single exhaust and plumbing in a remote turbo from the rear? Just asking…

Greetings, I am looking for the alternator bracket for an M1010 CUCV. I want to add AC to my M1031 and keep 24v system. Thanks for any help.

Oh the things we do to make things work! my engine hoist worked great when I swapped in a 5.0 on my 96 Ranger. But on an M1031, I needed to be a bit more creative without removing the radiator support. The hoist is at full extension in the pics. That was fun! now to clean up and reseal the...
