But why do it twice?
Does it need brakes to be in the body shop?
Install the wilwood stuff without the front rotor or caliper.
Bolt the wheel to the hub or just leave the caliper off.

Is the qa1 stuff going on before bodywork? What’s the big picture plan?
Multiple rounds of primer will kill a detailed frame unless you body guy want to tape everything off every time. Not many are that energetic.
Plus you will pay labor for that.
Body guy/painter is a true craftsman and will deal with the frame and could and would deal with wheels.

Part of the issue is the guy doing the engine and suspension has a small window for working on my Blazer and everything has been back ordered and delayed. I have everything delivered now except for the Dakota Digital gauges but it will run and drive without if I have to. Even Willwood brakes aren't shipping until 1/11. I don't want to order wheels without measuring after the brake installation. Not enough time with all the delayed shipping?
