Thanks, it's starting to come together. I almost don't want to take it down for the conversion...been enjoying it quite a bit using it like it is, but it's about that time. We're really hoping that we can get it in and out this winter and be running again by early spring.
I've had good luck with Rustoleum gloss black enamel (rattle can) and tend to use that most of the time.
Diff covers and spring plates were sourced from RuffStuff...lots of good parts there.
