I have used Boeshield T-9. When I decided to install a spare tire carrier in the bed of my FZJ75 pickup I had to remove the plastic bedliner. While it was out I cleaned the bed really well and then used an entire spray can on the bed before reinstalling the bedliner. It stuck pretty well and didn't appreciably run even on the vertical surfaces. That was almost exactly 5 years ago and I haven't removed the bed since to see how well it did. The paint was worn off in lots of places but there was little to no rust given the dry climate. I just didn't want it to start rusting once I got it stateside. Guess I should probably check that at some point.
Research project!
Just for posterity, here’s the before Boeshield photo. Edit: Actually, I just went back and looked at the original photo and that photo is after the Boeshield was applied.

Inching forward on this project. Got the water pump on, fluid film om the frame rails and finished spraying the back of the front clip.
Rather than struggle by myself gonna wait til I have a second set of hands to get this installed.

Does anyone know the trick to removing the wires from these old brake reservoir connectors ? Where is the pin?
If I’m not mistaken you can slide a super small flat head from the back right next the green wire and it’ll unlock it. Flat head closest to the plastic.

thx. successfully de-pinned it. Now I need to open up that spade and see if I can rejoin a wire. Or I can do it the easy way and buy a new one from SOR
@Coolerman is said to have most if not all of the electrical connections we need to keep these beasts going. I’m drawing a blank on his website right now.

oh yeah, I saw a link somewhere, thx again for the recco...
I’d gotten many of my replacement connectors from him…they are identical in my view. They are inspiring enough to make me want to try to build a complete wire harness from scratch…but I would never even think for a moment that I could

I asked if he has a sub harness instead if trying to wire back on the connectors...

IS @Coolerman in biz or just slow to respond?

This is totally from memory of posts I’ve read. I have never actually ordered anything from him although I should have a number of times. I think this is 100% his side gig, I think he’s slowed down considerably recently but as far as I know he’s still in biz. Hopefully someone else can chime in:
Haven’t heard much regarding @Coolerman in long time, do think he slowed down. Lucky enough to have him build new wire harness for 40 a few years ago. It’s a work of art!
I used this link whenever I’d ordered except once…that was a pm thru MUD but 4 yrs ago. I’d ordered a bunch of connectors back in August and all came thru a few days later. He does have a job as I remember and this is a night/weeknd gig
