I am getting ready to do the single piece axle conversion on my AMC20 . To that end I got new drum backing plates. They are used and my thought is getting them blasted and powder coated before I put the axles back together. I can't think of a reason why I shouldn't can anyone else?

So far the only thing I have powder coated is Jeep wheels. You doing it yourself ? Since they don't show much I would just blast and rattle can. Go for it !
 
I cleaned mine, blasted and used Eastwood rust encapsulation but powder coating should be fine.
 
I have a two man shop locally that is highly recommended that will blast and powdercoat in whatever color I want for €20 each. Since I want to get my running bars and bumpers blasted and coated too I will see what the backing plates look like and then probably have them do the bumpers too.

Dropped my backing plates off at the powder coating shop yesterday. He said I should have them back later this week or the beginning of next. I am curious to see the results. Below is the before picture.

Got my plates back from the powder coat shop yesterday. I got to say that I am impressed with how good they turned out. Now to get them onto the Jeep. 3f2c310ef061e50768efe630fd12cdfb.webp
