Yeah, I'm going to end up getting covered in dirt and mud after spending some quality time with a pressure washer
I didn't clean and paint the suspension bits when I originally did the disc brake swap on Frankentruck, and ended up doing it several years later. Definitely don't want to do that with Penny this go around.

Got the rest of the front suspension removed, so next up will be lots of cleaning and a little bit of painting
