whew that AMC blue looks beautiful, I can vouch for the POR 15, I used it on the floor board of my truck and it never came off even though I didnt have floor mats and was stomping all over it. They also have a frame paint thats a semi gloss the gloss you have will dull over time

Well today started fine with front shackle, and rear spring eye bushings installed. Had to pull out all the stops on these, but managed to get them done.

Then moved to rear shackles and the bolt was nearly rusted thru, so went and made my own set instead of waiting on shipping. Need to work a little more on my welding and clean them up yet but, here they are. They are 3/4 inch longer than stock, width is stock, and saved myself 60-70$

Will post pics when finished and dimensions if anybody wants them

Thanx for all of y'all's comments, I'm feeling good it finally coming together

Good looking project.

BTW: Be careful working around POR-15, it's a bitc.....
