    715 found, worth it?

    If i owned this truck 7k would "not" buy it. Originals in this nice of condition with winch and troop seats along with fording kit are extreamly hard to come by. Keep in mind the m715 bunch of folk for the most part are so tight they squeek when they walk so i just let them walk and squeek away.

    M715 hei conversion

    I dont use inferior parts on anything,never have and never will. Thats why everything i make is top shelf, like my custom rims for instance, the only ones on the market that will balance. Often copied but never duplicated. The secret is praying over everything. Just a fyi
