M715 video

Here's a few youtube links for the M715. Took it to Wharton State Forest yesterday with the Mid Atlantic Full Size Jeep Club for some trail riding. Got it stuck in a water hole that nobody should have gone through....but I'm just not that smart

That is one Big A$$ video, what a nice ride it was! I have spotted your rig here in Richmond,VA a few weeks back, actually in Bon Air.

Yes sir! Sorry, I'm not a purist. I have an uncontrollable urge to install engines that don't belong in certain vehicles.

No sorry necessary, I think it's cool. I like to keep things pure and do what you do too. Do you have a build thread?? I picked up a 715 last fall off of gsa and I'm really looking for to getting it going once the snow melts and I can work without gloves.

There is a build thread over on the 715zone. Started life as a stocker, then to a rather healthy 406SBC with an automatic trans, then to a 4bt/NV4500/GM axle swap, Now the 5.9 Cummins. I'm done with transformations on this truck. I found the happy combo, no it's time to tweak it just a bit with a little more fuel and a little this and that.
