Those wheels are sweet. Both the 60 and the 79 series in the FB post you linked have them on there. I wonder where they came from?This 60 series campaigned by M. Vandewoesty / S. Roy in the Dakar Classic Rally:

They remind me of a Halibrand
The rally mudflaps are cool too.
Well, I am officially looking for a set nowAppears to be NLA wheels under the brand names Outback and Staun, with the wheel called TX or TX-1 "Performance".
With Eric's steel wheel thread I got looking at what all is available out there. Noticed these wheels in the new Overland, they look pretty good. Not steel like Henry and Eric were looking for, but touted as being pretty strong.

@dbbowen does your 4x4 labs rear bumper have lips/rounded edges on the side protective panels ? I have seen some that are just thin edges whereas yours look like an extra/nicer rounded edge ? Thanks.Got out to the mountain for some snowboarding and kicking around in the snow

its got an extra 1 inch dom tubing that goes along the edge for extra protection. Check out the link below, this was actually the weld together kit so ive got super detailed pics here:@dbbowen does your 4x4 labs rear bumper have lips/rounded edges on the side protective panels ?

Ah, thank you, I remembered your post but didnt realize the additional feature there at the time. Very nice !its got an extra 1 inch dom tubing that goes along the edge for extra protection. Check out the link below, this was actually the weld together kit so ive got super detailed pics here:
Next is the side wings... This is what you should have right now.
Your center section should be fully welded to the inside brackets and the recovery points should be fully welded. Everything is welded inside and outside of the center section... and all of your bolts holding it to the frame need to be tightened down and not left loose. This will be where your bumper will live now.

You should have already installed your Z brackets to your rear body mount and tightened them to where they are tight but can still slightly spin around.
Here you will put...
no worries! Yeah it really stiffens up those wings i had my truck rested on a stump on one of the wings a few months back and there wasnt any deflection into the body!Ah, thank you, I remembered your post but didnt realize the additional feature there at the time. Very nice !
That's the best looking rear bumper I've seen on a 60. If I ever decide to spend more than scrap metal from the bin at work to have a nice bumper, yours is what I want.no worries!

The weld together kit was truly not very difficult to do and saves you a ton of the cost up front hahaThat's the best looking rear bumper I seen on a 60. If I ever decide to spend more than scrap metal from the bin at work to have a nice bumper, yours is what I want.
