just make some out of some sheet metal thats all they are. the only there to keep dirt and dust and rocks and stuff away from your rotors. i couldnt imagine finding used ones, there arent too many people parting out front dana 60's

i know exactly what they look like thank you very much. and with a torch or some sort of heat and sheet metal they could be made very easily. of course they might not look like stock ones but they would work thats all that matters. i have 4 front d60's at my house im not an idiot
