Frame is sandblasted and painted! All the little pieces were blasted and painted and A-arms have new bushings and ball joints. It's starting to look like a frame again!
Still not spending a bunch of money (about $175 in paint and metal etch primer. And around $250 for all new front bushing and ball joints) just taking my time and doing it right! I'm a HUGE believer in RED Locktite on any suspension or frame piece, blue on everything else. It's a little dusty, but you can see that the semi-gloss black works good on all the underside stuff.
