Ready for Powder Coating

[Cudaragtop]

Blasted and welded stiffening plates to my Lower Control Arms, Blasted Upper Control Arms, New Front Disc Brake Spindles, New Front Caliper Brackets and Dust Shields, Blasted Center Link. All ready for powder coating. 
I'm thinking all the same color to keep cost down and just go Silver or Natural Steel look.
Although Gold Lowers would go well with the QA1 Gold Dynamic Strut Bars, and Speckled Black and Silver would go with the Hellwig sway bar.
What about Paint for Calipers, Tie Rod Ends and Lower Ball Joints? Cast Blast or VHT Clear or Silver?  Or can these be powder coated too?

Gonna look great. I painted all mine black. Almost everything went flat black. I left the Hellwig sway bar speckled, it looks good. Are those fast ratio arms? I went from manual 24:1 ratio to power with fast ratio and is now 12:1. Holy Crap what a difference - it is like a go cart. will take some getting used to. Look forward to seeing pics when you are done. I am working on organizing pics so I can start a build thread.

Yes they are PST fast ratio arms. I'm going to use a BAC Modified - SMALL Borgeson Delphi steering box and Direct Fit Coupler.

Did you paint your tie rod ends and ball joints too? I've seen a lot of pictures but not sure if they were painted, powder coated or left natural.

if you powder coat make sure all holes, threads, and seal surfaces are covered or plugged. lower control arms cannot be powder coted. will screw up the adjusters.

Interesting read about powder coating over on Moparts. I had this rust issue on some of the parts I had powder coated.

No I did not paint the tie rod ends and ball joints on mine, they were already black.
