Corners for the bows....workable on the 715?
that is good to know. i have a handfull of the M35 ones, and had hoped that they would work for the M715 as well.

Thanks for the verification. Nice looking truck too.
Yep, the bow corners are the same as the M35 other than the roll up straps. Also the troop seat up-rights are the same as a M35 other than the lenght that sit down into the bed pockets. The M35 are a touch longer and need to be trimmed down to fit a 715.

Most of us though don't trim down the ends. Just the middle post to fit above the fender. If you trim all 3 legs to get the seat just above the bed rails, you will also have to trim the fold out angles seat supports.
Here is a picture of when I was fitting my troop seats to the M715. Notice the collar on the legs where it goes from desert tan to green. That collar is supposed to be flush with the bed rail:

Remember if you didn't build it you can't call it yours.
