Re: Project: Custom 71 4x4 hotrod

Front traction bars would rock!

Glad to hear the powder coat decision was a winner. Yellow70GMC makes a good point about cleanability too.

6600Duramax, do you know the supplier of your powder coat? The speedway black w/clear coat I have on my axles is a ' prismatic powders.' And how did you touch up the spot your spot on the cross member after you had to grind it? This speedway black has a ton of metal flake in it so I was concerned about using a 2 stage to fix areas needing extra work and the powder to be removed. I actually called NIC Industries and they said they would mix me some 2 stage urethane liquid at $64.95/qt.

How did you strip your frame? Sand blast or chemically? Did you also powder coat your leaf springs and traction bars?


Sorry for all the questions but I appreciate any feedback. Thanks.
