Yes folks, I'm selling my giant M715 Velvet. This was the truck that was a two event winner at Top Truck Challenge '05. Tow Test and Mud Pit.

This truck is drive-train solid, like rock solid. body is in okay condition but does have a few scrapes and a crease on one door. Bed floor is wavey but solid. Cab floors pretty good.

custom driveshafts with 1410 and 1500 series u-joints
Rockwell 2.5 ton axles
High clearance pans on axles
Detroit Lockers both axles
Ouverson alloy double spline rear axle shafts
Ouverson alloy drive flanges (rear)
Selectro lock outs front axle
Pinion flanges trimmed

Truck needs a little tlc but is still a brute on the trails. Last time out was to Rausch Creek 2 years ago where it made it everywhere the 404 mog in front went, broke Pizza Rock, and made it through a mud pit that was claimed to be 5' deep. It was only little over 4' deep...just covered the XML's-
