[sixb]

Well I got this today to probably resale but I have a ?? My searching shows there should be a np205 but it has a np208. Thr door says m1031 but is there any other way to idintify what this truck really is? Thanks, David.

The door could have been changed? does the truck have over load springs? the best no question way would be to check the nsn number being its got a 208 in it I would think its not a 1031

a 205 shifter points straight up and a 208 pints forward if that helps.

It' most definetly a 208. What is a nsn# It really dosen't matter just curious now, so I must know hehe. That's what I was thinking is it would be easy to swap doors. Would the vin# tell me anything usefull?? Thanks.

Edit, I just checked one of my M1008s and the new M1031 has 9 leafs just like the others.

the nsn number is listed on the sill plate on driver door post just below the door latch pin the 1008 is 2320-01-123-2671 and the 1028 is 2320-01-127-5077 if its not one of those I will have to look up the 1010 and 1031 not sure off top of my head !!

Very cool & thanks but my 2 M1008s or atleast I thought they were, both had np208s also and said M1008 on the doors have a stock # of 2320-01-123-6827 and both have a mfg. date of 02/86
My new one has a stock # of 2320-01-123-2671 with a mfg. date of 84 I can't remember the month and a M1031 on the door.
Now I'm confused.

Yes, the VIN is different for the 1031 from the 1008. The third digit will be a B if it's a 1031 and a C if it's a 1008.

a m1031 has a able body made of alumimumn that comes equipped with a pto 12kw altenator and a 5cfm three phase air compressor it can operate a welder.it is also equipped for cutting torch tanks.it is a very handy unit to have.i have an 1986 with only 7.500 miles.one of the best service trucks you can have.

a new process 205 transfercase is steel a 208 is aluminumn a m1031 has a pto on the drivers side that runs a belt to drive the altenator.it uses a long one piece rear driveshaft that uses a slip yoke.do a google search on a contact maintence truck.it has a 9400 lb gvw rating.it also has a limited slip in the front axle.it is slow on the highway.but great offroad.

Technically, the M1031 is a cab/chassis. It is most often equipped with the “Contact Maintenance” box you reference, but it doesn’t necessarily have to have the box to be an M1031.
