I will be on the look out for them

Just checking to see how everything is coming, what did you think was the best option for the lower shock mount? Thanks!

[Pappy]

Honestly, I took them out of teh box, saw the bushing still in them and the adjusters still screwed in and set them aside. I should have time this week to see what all I have to disassemble before I can touch them, blasting or coating

[JM317]

Ok, no problem. I wasn't sure whether or not the adjusters in the lower mount could be taped off or not. Does the upper shock bushing have to be pressed out?

[Pappy]

Ok bud, here is what ive got

Everything is doable except 2 pieces

The lower mount has a bleeder valve that doesnt come out. I am almost positive there are small o-rings and or plastic keepers that are inside that housing that will or could melt if i tried to Moly coat it.

The 2nd item is the small screw, there isnt any way to hold such a small item to blast or coat it.

The rest is being stripped now and i will be moly coating today and tomorrow so you will be done shortly

[JM317]

Sounds great, I can polish the lower shock mount and paint the little screw I'm sure. Just send me a price when you're done and I'll get you paid!

[JM317]

Payment sent, thank you!

[Pappy]
