When was this Jeep abandoned in the woods? The day before filming?

@hartleydaniel2044 2 года назад

Couple hours at most.

@canadianrust2652 2 года назад

Brand new fuel filter on it. 🤣

@fellowship_of_the_goat 2 года назад

Literally. Not even dirty at all and half the parts look new

@skeetermcswagger0U812 2 года назад

Next they just need to recover a new engine in a ravine that has WD-40 and fresh leaves and saw dust thrown on the camera side so we dumbass viewers don't know better. They are 'M-O-O-N',..that spells SMART!🤤

@zrili 2 года назад

Yep!

For those questioning many things, as you see while watching the video the M715 was first talked about and rescued in episode 98. He talked about the M715 a little bit on how he found it and where it came from. As far as content being cutout that is because these are not the full episodes. All content and full episodes are found on Motortrend on demand. These are just sweet snippets that are dropped on RU-vid in hopes to buy the Motortrend on Demand membership to watch the full content. Thanks for your time on reading this. Also loving the truck.

Our family had 2. 1 had the 230 "Tornado" inline 6, the other a small block chevy 350. Fun trucks to drive and good for the family tree business.

@darkninjacorporation 2 года назад

That thing is so sweet. Love the paintjob, love the new axles and wheels, love that tarp canopy y'all put on it. Plus, it has a great origin story! Fished up from off a cliff in a beautiful forest, and towed home with a custom Jeep Gladiator tow truck. Really gives off "military truck turned civilian" vibes. Not many vehicles that look quite like it.

@Edwinrantung 3 месяца назад

My dream truck ❤❤

@jaydee3046 2 года назад

The cab is from the wagoneer and gladiator. The horn button has a cover to hide the civilian factory badge. The civilian curved windshield was dropped and a "plug" was put in curved area. The front end has all the mount points for the original grill. Would be cool to make a milspec wagoneer out of one.

@tg2963 2 года назад

It looks like it had a rockwell pattern and there are so many different wheel options for that pattern there's a place where I'm from that will take whatever size tractor wheel you want and make centers with your bolt pattern so you could have steel 30 inch wheels on your truck if you wanted to and I've seen the dude cut some pretty cool patterns with a cnc machine and he welds the centers in there not bolt ins

@scottpetrie8707 2 года назад

By the way, Kia builds this Jeep as the KM450 for military use under licence. It is in use in the militaries of several countries like South Korea and the Philippines.

In the 1980-s these M715 where dirt cheap as Nato surplys... I did not by one, got a M38A1 and a M151A1 instead... regret it now 😁

@markanderson9857 2 года назад

Enjoyed the video. Wish it had more details. What are the axles? What ratio? All that kind of stuff. I'm working on m715 right now myself. I put Chevy one ton axles under it. I had a 292 Chevy six in it. Putting in a 454 right now with 4 speed. And a divorced Dodge 205 transfer case. Still trying to figure out a good steering box etc

@brandonwhorley674 2 года назад

Ive got a 67. Awesome trucks. The FSJ Jtruck power steering box should bolt onto the frame.

@karlhammond6720 2 года назад

a power steering setup off a 74 nova can be retrofitted and then you haqve an m715 with poiwer steering

C'mon guys. We know you're big time entertainers now. But the intro was enough to make me look for another video. I didn't but wanted to.. Keep with your roots. You are getting to fancy for 80% of your fan base. Cool jeep tho. And i don't say that often... Clampy better not be neglected!

@lemongopher 2 года назад

I believe jeep making the new Gladiators is the greatest travesty to mankind and you can't change my mind. The concept designs/trucks were way better than the mess they gave us. This is worse than the destruction of the Library of Alexandria.

@rustywater3219 2 года назад

You guys need to do some traveling across Nepal or the death road in Columbia so you can tell us if they really are bad or just reported on by city drivers.

@ourv9603 2 года назад

M715? How to you explain the blue & white cab paint? But the military bed? And the M715 dash? I tend to think what you have is a parts mule. Lets try a little of this. Lets try a little of that. !

@jamesthompson8008 2 года назад

When you look at the interior, you clearly see the mil spec equipment; this poor thing just had quickie repaint to the outside. I would like to know the REAL story behind how they found/obtained it. Looks like an old firewood truck that probably busted a knuckle and got left.

The street worthy ratios in those axles killed its off road capabilities. You can compensate with a diesel. A 4bt fits well in these trucks btw.

Probably won't be renewing my membership due to DED being canceled. What happened MotorTrend???

@soldierski1669 2 года назад

I'm building one now, the factory "everything" has to go. The M-715 engine is an OHC I6 and nobody supports it. The T case in a NP200, it gets hot and boils the lube. The front closed knuckle D60 is about as strong as a D44 on the short end. The Rear D70 has no locker options. Military stenciled " MAX SPEED 35MPH " on the dash when soldiers started hurting them. Mine is getting a 07' Super D60 front on a WFO Radius, the rear is going to get a 14 Bolt or Sterling. Engine is a 6.0 Lq4 with a 4L85e run with a FiTech system, the T case is a HD/AMG 242 32 spline from the H1. It's really cool but it was slow in 1968, 2020 it just can't keep up.

@mikewhitman745 2 года назад

The d70 has a limited slip option and mine was stenciled with a 45mph max but yeah. That's why mine has a small block Chevy now and am looking for diffs, trans and transfer.

@dougsnova1 2 года назад

why do you guys always fail to address the engine? The chevy straight 6 is a great engine if you only use common sense and deal with any issues caused from sitting for years. You do so well with the offroad equipment parts but massively fail at the mechanics of the projects.
