Is there a cutout of the cowling in front of the radiator? That bigger “cable” sized hole in the bed reminded me of a radio truck version of the M715. There was a cooler for the system that mounting in front of the radiator requiring the cowling to be cut. There are several pictures on the...

That mad driller really does resemble you Rory.

Good news.

With the Michelin XZL tires at their 80 psi max I flat towed once 180 miles round trip to the air show in Temple behind the M35 one year. No tire wear that I could determine. I just could only see the shadow of the M715 sometimes during the drive and didn’t like that so I either drove it or...

Mine is over 7,000 pounds at the local scrap yard. I think I the problem flat towing is the Castor of the front axle. The tires just don’t want to follow in a straight line. Not as bad as the front tires locking over when towing a M35 as we have both experienced. But enough to shove the front...

I forgot I have a video showing what I did:

That looks better than what I did. M35 rear shackle mounts drilled out to 1 inch bolted to the top.

Not that I am aware of Rory. During the Daimler-Chrysler days lawyers swarmed anyone selling anything with JEEP on it. There were several vendors selling newly built replacement M715 tailgates at the time. I know of at least one in Kingston, TN that continued to sell tailgates with no JEEP logo...

Looking good Rory!
