    Arrow Another noob to the m715 world

    So ive always loved the m715's but never pursued acquiring one, being a mopar man ive stayed in the realm of plymouth traildusters and w350 crew cabs for my fun! Owning one of these military monsters wasnt on my mind when fate knocked me upside the head in the form of a customer with an old jeep in his backyard. Long story short, and trying not to upset people, i ended up with a very clean m715 for nuthin'! With power steering, np200 rear output relocated and a small block chevy conversion already done to my surprise! So now my gears are rolling on how i want to attack this project!! im thinkin modern axles and divorced 205? Sound right? Lol
