Tubings not my thing. For that matter, neither is presentable fabrication, so hunting someone local that can replicate something similar to these rear corner wings
and, possibly, cut rear frame rails and add cross member below door, so rear most frame attachment point will change.
The tubing used on Metaltech's is 2 x .120 wall DOM SRA and, no, they don't and won't make another set.
Have spoke with the only tube wizard I know and he's limited to 1 1/2" and booked for many months, so hoping someone here, may be interested.
Not sure how far you want to drive, but Come Get Ya Some in Ft. Smith does some of the best fab work I know of. They just built me an exo cage for my Yota and it looks great.
With minor fab to inner fender, plus want to be able to remove outer, still.
Have ambitions to taper the rear frame rail, an effort to minimize dragging, from 4" to 2 1/2", rebuilding rear cross member, then tube/bumper work along these lines
But obviously higher up on the frame, since the lower quarter won't be in the way, and higher up on the body corner.
It's hell wheeling a station wagon and more protection the better.
Those curbs keep getting tougher. I'm trying to get the nerve up to try maybe a median.
