I took it to bare metal and used a rust killing product and than layed down some epoxy primer and top coated with industial paint. Looks great just hope it holds up to abuse.
Ive been impressed with the currie antirock system thats on my buddies rock buggie. I was thinking of installing one but the price tag was eye opening so Ill just continue to go without.
Yes fairly dry climate. No it has a tailgate and i do store at angle to keep water from pooling. Rust is starting to pit so navel jelly and a wire brush are in order but would prefer to coat with something to save me from having to repeat the process again. Thought liner might help add scratch...
its is all about the angle of the joints. Single u joints and double cv each have applications they preform best at. Im not sure what what angle each joint falls into right now, but I would only go to a cv if I couldnt get a single to work because of operating angle. thats less wieght on the...
I enjoy that is all purpose right now and fairly bullet proof that i can loan it out and not worry it will be damaaged. One day I may put a lid on it for a rtt or mod it more in a expo direction and want to leave that option open. I really like the durability of professional spay in liners like...

Disclaimer I live in a pretty dry climate. If you use any type of oil to lube your jack dirt it coat it and help gum up the works. Here we use straight water to lube while jacking it does work wonders. I will recommend you understand how the jack works because sooner or later your going to have...
I don't have any of that steering stuff left on my cruiser but seem to remember you could add a penny or dime and shim that out. Try a search for penny trick or info on rebuilding it before ordering
I would look to covering rust with rustbullet or por15 you'll find it at places that sell automotive paint. Sorry no advice on replacement rocker panels
I would do some research on which vendors are best to buy parts from. I personally use cruiser outfitters Kurt has a ton of knowledge and stocks ome replacements and high quality after market. You can get sticker shock buying some oem but it's always best in the long run. Cool cruisers has...
