Thread: Source for small parts

  1. #1

    Default Source for small parts

    I need a few small parts to finish rebuilding my M715 and I want to keep it as original as possible. I haven't been able to find these parts from the usual MIL surplus truck/parts dealers like Memphis Equiptment.

    Anyone have any ideas on sources for these items? I would prefer to find these as surplus or original parts, or at least as close to original as possible.

    Battery Box
    Tailgate Chain and hooks
    Straps for holding jerry cans, ax/shovel/etc.
    Cab and bed bushing replacements
    Pick ax handle and head

    Thanks in advance for any help

    The canvas straps are sold on Ebay all the time. Lots of vendors such as Weebee webbing has them too. Not an endorsement for them, I just remember their name easily.

    Boat trailer rollers cut to size work real well for body bushings. Not stock, but they work.
    Remember if you didn't build it you can't call it yours.

    6.2 powered M715, 5 M1009's, M416, 2 M101's, 2 M105's, 3 M35's, M1007 6.5 turbo Suburban project called Cowdog.

    And for the pick, I have yet to find one that is the correct size. They are all too long. I have not checked eBay lately, but most of what you are looking for showed up there off and on.
