cheers mate, my old man has put a couple of original style chrome ones on his 40 and they have always rusted out. An i wasn sure if i could hang them off the front, those look neat up there didnt wanna ruin the front too much.

It is a jeep just didn't recognise it as its not on fire !!!!!! Can one of the mods please pull this from the "WILD 40" thread as it clearly does "NOT" belong.

arent the front tyres on the wrong way?

thought all of them should have the V's facing the same way?

heaps of people run them reversed, they find they dig better, or in the rocks, pull the tire onto the rock instead of having the grooves direct the tire off the rock.

Here's my mates 40, not as extreme as the rest but a proud build over many weekends. We cut and shut a ute cab in and eliminated 90% of the rust! Haha
