I have a whole axle Im working on right now.This thing was saturated in rust.After a half a day of sanding it down the flapper on my grinder I got it all cleaned up.My truck is blue so im probaly going to paint the whole thing blue.Living here in the rust belt chances are the paint isnt going to last long.
