Re: Attempt/Mistake #2

Also FINALLY finished painting my trailing arms. Had previously primed them black but since ultimately wanted orange had to prime over that with my white epoxy. So I had welded together the two halves so that they would not be so inclined to rust out and start the paint bubbling in between the halves (like happened the first time I built this truck) and had a littl bit of a lip at the edge of my welds when I ground them flush that I did not like. Nothing a little bit of Rage Xtreme didn't fix. So now I have smooth tops on my trailing arms. Sorry I did not take any before pictures. Put this over the black primer as recommended and then two coats of white followed by my customary three coats of color. The little bracket on the bottom is for my rear sway bar. And that is all I got done for now. I apologize if I bore you all with my small updates...
