These are OEM on troop carriers for the military and are nearly impossible to find used yet alone brand new.

I'd tell you my scrounging secrets, but then I'd have to kill you.......

Hey when you don't have a regular full time job, you gotta do what you gotta do.

Something has to fund the addiction!

Yeah, these "pizza cutters" are going to be sweet on my Flareside trail rig.

38" tall but only 11" wide. They are going to give me good ground clearance under the diffs without sticking way out of the wheel wells and attracting attention by 5-0.

I gotta find two more stock 16 x 7 rims before I can mount them up. Was doing some work on a custom lifted front spring hanger last night for the front D60.

I'm going to start a build thread with all of the progress and updates with pics later tonight.
