EUREKA Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 I want to swap the bed from one of my MJ's to the other. 88 metric ton long bed > 91 long bed. (The 91 is also getting the springs and rear axles from the 88.) Are there any threads that address removing an MJ bed? I just want to get an idea of what I'm up against.

JustEmptyEveryPocket Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 A good first step for any comanche related questions you have is to go to Google and type in "site:comancheclub.com *what you want to find*" (without the "" and ** btw). This limits the search results to comancheclub.com. Great way to find threads directly related to your question. Sometimes the OPs even come back and put in the answers!!

Crash Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Should be plug n pray. I think 6 , plus the tank straps. And the fuel filler. I wantnto some day make a bracket to not have to bolt the tank to the bed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EUREKA Posted June 17, 2020 Author Share Posted June 17, 2020 Looks like I ave everything ready for the bed to come off. I found a video by "Bleepin Jeep" on youtube that was helpful. Lifting one side, it doesn't feel very heavy at all. Could two larger guys remove a long bed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete M Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 there are a dozen things it can snag on as you lift and carry, so go slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EUREKA Posted June 18, 2020 Author Share Posted June 18, 2020 Got the bed removed today. It was easy. Thanks for the help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EUREKA Posted August 22, 2020 Author Share Posted August 22, 2020 Made a dolly to store/move the bed while it's off the truck. All I had to buy was the castors. Works great. The bed sits up on one side and is strapped to the dolly with ratcheting straps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
