Pictures of nonrubbing Cager wagon wheels

[Bomar]

Here are some pics of my project 60. I love this truck I wish I would have bought one years ago.

Tell me what you think.

Next on the list is to strip the hood and paint it flat black and also the roof. Cut rears behind wheels and make a bumper.

Here is the info on the wheels that I got from Summit :

They are Crager 15x8 part number CRR-3105860 3.75 backspacing white wheel. The best part was the price $33.95 each.

I bought it that way. It has a tow bar on the front.

So you are saying it is D90 front?

Okay, I'll say it.

It belongs on a Defender, not a Cruiser

dont fret i almost bought one.dam i wish i would have knew about those rims last month sweet deal.did they kill you on the shipping

 

[Bomar]

All they have is a 10.95 handling fee no shipping.

Got 5 wheels and new black lug nuts for less than $220 to my door.

how did you paint your wheels?

 

[Bomar]

Sanded the white with 220 sand paper and sprayed rustolum flat black spray paint.

It took about 4 hr total to sand all the wheels and paint them all. That was in 30 degree weather in the garage.

Regarding stripping the hood and roof...

Don't strip the paint off, with a little sanding, the factory paint is a great base and second, your 60 will get way too hot in the summer with a black roof, I painted the very top of mine white to deflect the heat, take it from me, my whole truck is flat black (except for the roof now).
