looks Sweeeet Brian, I just read your PM, sorry I didn't get back to you in time but I just saw the PM in my box today. looks like you didn't need me anyway. Did you end up sandblasting? Or did you wire it? Wired all the surface stuff off then low pressure media blast with 70 grit alumina oxide. I use that as I can shop vac it back up, run it through a strainer and reuse. Once it's beat down a little more, use it on the A Arms and Control Arms. Been a lot of work as there was lots of old grease and oil all over the front section. . But, it's looking good now

Here's what the control arms and A Arms look like after using the blast a couple times.

Here's some updates, hoping to clean and rebuild the power steering unit over the week end, have the gas lines but need to get the new clamps. I decided to go with the brake line as illistrated in the assembly manuel versus what RAMZ did and I think how most were actually done. All bolts were cleaned and repainted with zinc phosphate, frame paint is chassis GLOSS black, sway bar and other front end parts were done with detail gray and silver cad. All in all, it's coming along nicely. Something a little different is painting the bolts on the differential, I kind of like the look. (Sorry about the picture quality, hopefully it will be sunny tomorrow).
