i think im gonna make my own wheels i should have some pics up later to explain ...also i was wondering why do people who do spring overs on m715 take two leaf springs out of the spring packs????? anyone?
thanks
People who do, and dont do, spring overs take leaves out to soften the ride. Stock springs are stiff little monsters.

and i have 2 of these wheel plates with the right bolt patteren in them and i have a friend who is going to make me 2 more...... i can save this patteren if anyone else would like to try what im doing and mine friend could make them for you as well not sure on price yet....... but if you have the correct wheel the insert fits right at 4.5" backspacing on the back of the rim. getting them centered will be the tricky part...

looks good... keep us posted! by the way, what size swampers were you running before you started the spring over? i would go spring over in a heartbeat if the rest of my truck wasn't all stock and the laws up here weren't so viscious against anyone trying to have some fun!
the tires in the pics are 38" tsl but im gonna run some 44" boggers.....just finish getting the front done minus the steering looks like the front is 2" higher than the back so im gonna have to flip the front spring mount on the rear....eehhhh no fun .. i could run a 2" block but it looks like the pinion angle would still be in a negetive position
OK, the stock springs are hard and rugged. However, you learn to love them with 2 tons of load on the truck and some spring travel left.
If you grease the springs (for example spray some ATF between the lays) in unloaded position (axles hanging free to blow the ATF in) you will notice that the truck can also have a very smooth ride, if your shocks are still ok.

Looking good. Like to see the finished product. That is if we ever get finished with these things.

What size tires are on the 715 when you first got it?
