Im interested to see the durability though, isnt it pretty exspensive?

 

Knowing me, I would brush, grind, sand, blast or whatever until I saw shiny metal EVERYWHERE.

Im kindof a freak when it comes to proper prep work. I hate to leave stuff unground or whatever.
Im pretty sure it wouldnt be a big deal to leave some of the rust and stuff behind though. I have only heard good about POR-15, and heard that it is well worth the time taken to apply it.

 

Yeah I hear ya, but there are spots where its just real hard to get to. I looked at it dry and it seems that it self levels, fills pitting and those types of things and looks outstanding!!

 

I got a gallon of it for 100.00. Last year I spent over 150 with Chassis paint and it was shot in one winter. I would pay 200.00 a gallon for this stuff though

 

I just went at my frame with some black rustoleum. I don't have time to do all the prep work for POR-15.
maybe next winter.
regardless. Looks like you guys had fun. how many guys were there?

 

We may have gone a bit overboard with prepping it, just to be sure it was done well. But you can just wire brush it, blow it off and paint it. We had 4 forum members, myself and my brother doing all this. It was a real good time man.

 

You need it soo bad lol

 

Checked it out today in the sun and all dry!
Wet paint

That is a major improvement. The salt up there sure does cause alot of rust. Looks great!

 

Thats for sure man! Thanks

 

looks great.

Nice work

 

Thanks man

Well today I started painting the frame under the cab and I will tell you it is a PITA!! I have done up to the torsion bars but I am having an issue with painting the inside of the frame due to brake lines and fuel lines. I may have to spray it on there if I can't firgure something out.



I also found I need to nuke the front end with the purple power due to grease and other crap on there so this project is going to take a while!!

 

I wish I would have known you were doing this, I can show you a frame that was done identical to yours after a winter of PA road salt that ate right through the POR15

 

awesome thread. i really need to do this

 

I'm pretty sure that even if salt can eat through the POR-15, Clint can keep his undercarriage sprayed off periodically to keep the salt off.

 

Finally done!!

 

Damn you went all out.

How come you lower ball joints sit up so high? mine dont

 

Nice! Looks like you got every nook and cranny.

 

Oh and dave, he is superlifted.

 

I swapped the OEM ones to Moog performers, they ae greasable!

Yeah thanks man! It was a pain but well worth it!

I have the same ones and they are less than a 1/8th of an inch above.

 

Dang I must have been thinking about something else.

 

Actually.....DOUBLE LIFTED LOL

 

Looks real good!

 

Thank you sir
