Well guys, I decided to powder coat and the results are outstanding. To have the cross member, wishbones & stone guards powder coated, it cost me a total of $100. Bargain!!! |

That is a good price. I was just quoted $100 (plus GST) per steel rim to have them blasted and powdercoated. Needless to say I won't be doing it. |

It is indeed a good price. I used to work in the bike industry and would regularly pay $100 for a frame alone, albeit a quality job. |

My next mission is to pull out the diff and change the bushes, shocks & leaf springs. I'll be getting the diff & drive shaft powder coated while I'm at it. |
