Re: #minijimmygmc Wifey's 1990 K5 Jimmy rebuild

I managed to roll the front of the truck outside for pressure washing the frame prior to a bunch of wire wheeling & sanding to get the frame cleaned up. This thing had been a mud truck when we got it, so there was silt and dirt everywhere (the mud line on the inside of the door was up around the door handle, so it had been submerged pretty good at one point.....)

OK, I did get it cleaner than that prior to painting. I feel like a used car lot guy using Tremclad spray paint to detail the engine compartment, but its just going to be a daily driver, so no need to get fancy.

The steering components are all going to get replaced with the exception of the box, so I wasn't worried about painting that stuff or the brakes for now. Also have the Off Road Design steering box braces to install still
