CadillacBanshee Posted June 3, 2007 Report Posted June 3, 2007 only took about 10 hours. i got the powder coating for free. Quote
Snopczynski Posted June 4, 2007 Report Posted June 4, 2007 (edited) Your not supposed to powdercoat stock a-arms, it heats up the nylon insert in the ball joint and makes the joint prematurely fail. They look pretty though. Edited June 4, 2007 by Snopczynski Quote

They look pretty though. I have seen others do it and that never came up. Is there a way to change that joint? Quote
Snopczynski Posted June 4, 2007 Report Posted June 4, 2007 Nope, thats why you dont powdercoat them. You have to buy an all new arm. Quote
ClimbAnyHill Posted June 4, 2007 Report Posted June 4, 2007 Makes a good reason to buy new aftermaket :thumbsup: I like the finish on those stocks though, you lso pc'd the shock springs? Quote
chevy7398 Posted June 4, 2007 Report Posted June 4, 2007 it all depends on how they were cured how much damage was done Quote
CadillacBanshee Posted June 4, 2007 Author Report Posted June 4, 2007 well, i guess i'll have the next set chromed then. It does look nice though. Quote
blueshee03 Posted June 4, 2007 Report Posted June 4, 2007 it all depends on how they were cured how much damage was done i've seen them pc'ed at lowered temps for a longer time and they held up just fine. i'd say its a chance you take when goin for good looks. Quote
XxMeltIcexX Posted June 4, 2007 Report Posted June 4, 2007 I personally have mine PC'd - he made sure they didnt get TOO hot, they hold up just fine - if you see the nylon coming out around the ball then dont use them. :cool: Eric Quote
