Hey guys, I just picked up a bitchen blaster for $500. everything on it is chromed or powdercoated but the a arms and axle. My question is can I have the stock a arms powdercoated? I know on Banshee's there is a plastic something or rather that will melt on the a arms but will I still run into this problem with the blaster? It has to be heated up to 400 degrees. Any help would be apreciated. Thanks again.

I'd say take the arm bushings out,and the boot of the <a  style='text-decoration: none; border-bottom: 3px double;' href="http://www.serverlogic3.com/lm/rtl3.asp?si=24&k=ball%20joint" onmouseover="window.status='ball joint'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">ball joint</a> and do it.I don't know what else is rubber/plastic on them.

ok, well unless someone rings in here and says not to do it then they are on their way to the powdercoater first thing in the morning. So if anyone knows anymore about having them done please please let me know. Thanks a bunch

If the ball joint is built into the arm like the Banshee, then don't do it. There is a plastic socket around the ball joint that will get ruined by the heat.

im sure those arms are set up the same way as the banshees are. i dont think id do it. they havent already been PCed for a reason. you will melt that boot deal on the ball joint for sure.
