Still have one on my Jimmy, all it needs is a paint job. Inside still looks new.

i run one on my truck it was made by a muffler shop you could proabally take your rubber hose to one and they could bend a steel one

How much did they charge you to bend one for it? I could have a few made just to have since I'm up to buying atleast one if not more 67-72 4wds a year and it never hurts to have another one around..Plus my 72 GMC needs the rubber one swapped out to a metal one for the cool factor.

i like the way it looks and like stated earlier in the thread its easier to find ends and it last longer but i am not sure of the reason from the factory

They just plain look cool. So does any one know why the factory used them?
