Re: 72 Highlander LWB w/ 5.3 and 6L80e

They got the frame painted a couple days ago with John Deere blitz black (and some kind of heavy duty rust prevention primer but I forget the name). I can say so far from what we've done to the frame putting frame braces in that the paint has held up pretty good. All the suspension parts were powdercoated matte black. Hopefully tomorrow we'll have the rest of the suspension on and maybe some brakes mounted up. We were ready to put the trailing arm crossmember in but we weren't sure on which position it goes in and it's a tight fit so we'd like to just install it once. Hopefully Pro Performance or Porterbuilt can help us out and we'll figure it out tomorrow.

Sorry for the crappy pics, tomorrow I'll get the real camera out and clean up the metal shavings.
