    Dynatrac ProRock 60 Rear Axle, that is important enough.
    Went and got some new hardware today... going to use different bolts instead of the phillips head ones that I got originally I think. Will be way easier to remove and reinstall if I need to.

    Also picked up some christmas tree clips to replace the bottom clips as I don't trust the stock ones that come on it.

    The OEM clips will not work with the new guards. Reason is the oem clips are too short, my guards are twice as thick as oem guards so you need clips that are twice the size too!


    *UPDATE
    some ppl have been asking for PP info which was removed from the OP once I sold out of inventory on hand. The intention was that I didn't want people waiting more than 2 weeks for to fulfill an order.

    PayPal info is back on OP! Now taking payments for orders, shipping in the order payment is received!

    Yea, I am pretty sure the ones I got should work, have not had the truck to be able to test though. But they are about twice as long as the stock ones.

    Nice product and definitely an improvement over stock. I haven't had a chance to read all the pages, but do you ship to Canada? If so I would be in for a set!

    Couple things learned from this...

    Start from the middle of the top and work your way out... don't tighten them as you go either, go back at the end and tighten them once the rubber is where you want it.

    Also... waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay easier to install with the tires off the truck...

    Would also suggest not using Philips head bolts, but actual hex head bolts... way easier to install honestly and remove if needed, can get the same size that you need in these as well.

    Also... pretty sure the liners had the bolt holes in the same location, but on the passenger side I had to drill an extra hole for the top since there was not one where it should have been.

    Other than that, pretty happy with them. I still need to find different christmas tree clips for the bottom since the ones I bought still are not big enough for the holes in the frame somehow even though they were bigger than the stock clips...
