Looks great! Subscribed! Did you sandblast and then powder coat the axle (in post #2)? Or did you paint it? If you painted, what did you use?

hey there sorry for the delayed reply, to answer your question on the rear end. i sand blasted it clean and primed it with Rustollium industrial paint , then painted it with the satin black Rustollium . both paints where purchased at Home Depot by the gallon. you're looking at $25.00 a gallon , now thats a killer deal. i started using it on frames, wheel wells, you name just an all around solid paint and very easy to use.
