But...

Re: Body work question (newbie warning)

Sandblasting if done right is the way to go...... Epoxy prime after you sand it down with 180 Grit, and you can work the areas after this is done. Make sure you sand it right after the day it's sandblasted, and apply the epoxy prime right away so you don't have any moister on the newly sanded steel....

Re: rear ended by a toyota

If you take your truck to a place that sells paint to body shops like a FinishMaster, paint supply store they have cameras that will take a picture of the paint that is on your truck and it will print out a formula that can be mixed to match your paint.

Re: Repainted my gauge faces

Just be careful doing that because your going to cover up the ford logo, ( it's not raised lettering) The best way is the way Shaffer explained it. I seen the name Shaffer and not many of us spell our name this way shaff...... Nice to see you know how to spell our name. LOL

Just a word of advise..... I ordered all the bushings and bolts from LMC and I took my springs to a local spring shop to have a couple of leafs repaired. I handed him all of the bushings and bolts for them to press in for me. They ended up using all of their own bushings and bolts and u bolts and di...
