Is your rear end black? Or is that charcoal metallic? So as long as I remember where shims where I can just reassemble my rear end and it should be fine correct?

Re: Project: "Home Grown"

Tonight I am going to have my guys here at the shop prime one of my wheel tubs so I can sand it smooth and paint it the color I would like to use on the truck. My reasoning is to have a much larger part I can set out in the sun and or in the dark to see how it really looks. A small spray out card doesn't really show enough of the color. Plus a wheel tub has curves and angles to show how the color flops.

You think it would look dumb to do my cnotch's a diff color from the frame itself?

Re: Project: "Home Grown"
