The Silverback team lives and breathes everything related to trucks, so it was interesting for our team to catch a glimpse of the Aussie Truck Rehab television series. Seeing our Silverback gear prominently shown on national TV reinforces our reputation as the top choice among truck enthusiasts.
The rise of Silverback Tri-Ribbed Fenders
Every year, new trends roll in, but some styles just have that timeless vibe. Take the Silverback Tri-Ribbed Fenders, for instance. They’re catching more and more eyes as classic vintage style makes a big comeback in the trucking world.
This Kenworth T659 was custom-made by the Heavy Haulage Asset team with 7” Silverback stacks and SS ribbed fenders.

It’s not just a pretty face for shows – this legend is a fully functional work truck that’s ready to hit the road! Decked out with a 7” Chrome Stack in straight cut style, complemented with Silverback Ribbed Fenders.
Another impressive addition to HHA’s portfolio is Daniel Booby’s 2002 model 379 Peterbilt (pictured below). This custom-built powerhouse features 8” Silverback Monster Stacks, standing at 4.2 metres tall, with 1.6mm thick Smooth Fenders, showcasing its formidable presence.

The Silverback Fenders were the preferred choice, featured in the 379 Peterbilt and T659 Kenworth rigs.
As Jon noted, “Silverback Guards are significantly thicker, made of quality stainless steel with two high-end material options, and are durable enough to stand the test of time.”
