You can switch your shoes over to a 60 s era dodge brake shoes. You have to remove the triangle wedge at the top and buy a spring kit and wheel cyl for same but then you can buy a lot cheaper shoes and wheel cyl. The wheel cyl holes must be elongated but it works mine have been this way for 10...
good luck with the cab hunt but all of the lower cab parts are the same as a Cherokee or a j10 and can be found aftermarket I rebuilt mine myself and made my own rockers and floor panels
I have a m764 it has the continental gas in it and rust galore. I have some thoughts the frame and axles suspension are in good shape auger bits are still there and auger drive and rear winch, front winch and pto stuff gone will post some pics later. The 1st thought was to strip body off and...
thats right the 44inch rubber helps with the gear ratio plus motor is balanced and blueprinted that lets it turn up a little more. I have a set of 21/2 axles but with that ratio i would have to go to the 56in and find a overdrive system
Im a little behind on threads but my m715 went from stock to 12v to 327/th350 to 350/ th400 to 427 /th400 on drive train . The suspension got 2in of lift and 44inch rubber frame off on the body new aluminum rad and gas tank then came the body mods. Got tired of buying tops so fabricated a hard...
look at the new oshkosh trucks let the have the hummvee i would love to have a hummvee but the but the new truck is bad ass. As long as there pay for them let them have them maybe am general will come up with something even better for all of our troops.
new pics starting to make the crane that goes in the back kind of like a cherry picker but has self contained hydrualics . The primer and paint go on in next few weeks . and new frt bumper and winch after that.
I was wanting to put 2 1/2 tons under my M715. I have seen the one on m715 zone ,but my question is I have seen the frt axles cut rewelded and another frt axle shaft to make them the same as the rear or offset rims to make up the diffrence . Can you do a hub flip or is there something else...
Mine has a np 200 case no pto holes but i do have a old duce with the drilling rig on the back has a 30000 or 40000 pound rear winch and has the pto ports . But that will be another project i dont have time for but might have to (boy is my wife going to be pissed)
Yep 20k for the frount . Ihave done a lot of off road recovery of equipment and buddys no one likes to take a 50000 dollar wrecker in woods or constuction yards to pull something out . Not to mention the old m715 is getting pretty heavy
I love to fab ck it out "m715a2". I havent finished it but now it has a all aluminum gate on the back the sides and top are all steel and a small crane is in the works for the back.. I made the bracket on the pump to accept a 2 or 4 bolt pattern pump but do not have a motor yet . Over the years...
I have a 20,000 pound winch that is pto I converted it to accept a hydralic pump my m715 has a 427 big block tubo 400 and stock divorced case i need a way to get hydraulics on it for the winch. Yes i know about the hydralic pump with a/c clutch in granger and northern but too rich for my blood ...
