Thanks! Powder coating definitely adds an element of cleanliness as well as durability. Also a little tricky trying not to scuff/crack the coating when pressing new bushings & ball joints in... If you do it, take your time, use lots of grease on the bushings, lots of padding on your vise; and only the minimum amounts of force needed to get the job(s) done.

Ladies & gentlemen, ^^This be the BAMF helping with this [the biggest] part of the build... and by helping, I mean doing pretty much everything from fabrication to babysitting me to make sure I don't do anything too dumb. Can't thank him enough for all he's doing
