Re: "Rice Rocket'

Ok I use this truck as a truck. It sees dirt roads/gravel and some offroading haha lol jk. I need something to stick!

Ima about to snap you guys some pics. I like the txture of my gas tank (bedliner). Seems strong.

The truck is just the frame and shocks right now (and exhaust).

Trailing arms are out. And rearend is out.Truck is in garage so CANT blast the frame. So thats out. The rearend/trailing arms misc. brackets still neeed to be cleaned. Opinions?

Anything I can get at autopart stores tsc would be better. I hate to keep my truck down. Its my dd and currently im riding the bus or walking.

edit, can you brush on por15 heard good stuff about it. how much do i need and whats it cost?

I would like to be able to show it and have it looking aite.

So if I go bedliner, I dont need to etching primer.

What about tractor paint or something. Dad WONT let me SPRAY any paint in his shop. Brush on only lol.

Now the trailing arms/rearend I can do whatever with because there portable.
Also, where can I get panhard/stabilizer bar bushings there really rotted. Im getting new shocks tom. from one of the parts stores (would like to lower but financially Im unable to right now). Any certain brand? Also, on all the bolts, is it ok to wire wheel em and paint em and reuse them?

Thats about it for now. OH WAIT, When I have my diff. cover off/channgin fluids what should I look for except gear ratio and the obivous (metal flakes borken teath).

ok im goin to snap some pics brb
