I wire wheeled mostly everything on thee frame and sand blasted everything I couldn't get to with the wheel. Then I primed it with rustoleum rusty metal primer. I flipped the frame over so I didn't have to work upside down but that all got primed and painted with rustoleum gloss black. Then I did the same to the 14 bolt, I only replaced the gaskets and seals because all the bearings were perfect. I still need to replace the pinion seal and swap out the the yoke for my other one because it has a chunk missing by one of the bolt holes.
