Suspension Parts

Ok my frame will be going to the powdercoater within the next month so it won't be to much longer until I start putting things back together. My question is who is a good vendor for buying suspension parts and brake and fuel lines from? Also what else should I take to be powdercoated? I figured all the front suspension pieces and the rear leaf springs what are some other parts that would be good to have powdercoated while I'm getting the work done? Thanks for all your help I couldn't do this without you guys.

Re: Suspension Parts

Got my SS brake lines from inlinetube and I like them, I know they have fuel lines too. I have had anything powdercoated and haven't touched my suspension yet so I'm no help there.

Re: Suspension Parts

deffinitly have your battery tray powder coated. they are notorious for rust. i would also make sure you have your bumper brackets and everything else that will be attached to the frame. as for parts to rebuild it. use an lmc catalog for pictures but order from someone else. there quality on most things is CRAP!!!

Re: Suspension Parts

Thanks guys, so powdercoat pretty much every little part that will be going on the frame? Will it look ok to powdercoat the battery box and not the radiator support or should I get it powdercoated to? Thanks for the help guys.
