taking the bed off soon

[tyjoja]

I will be taking my 73's bed off soon as many of you suggested to install a 2 1/2"-4" drop kit. Some of you also suggested that I clean up and paint the rear frame and suspension at the same time. I can borrow my dads angle grinder with a wire brush head on it, and that and some time should knock most of the grime off. Here's my question, when I get it cleaned up what kind of paint or primer should I use? And is there anything else I should do to the frame or the bed while I have it off? Thanks Bob
