    What did you use to clean the underbody? I should really undercoat mine.

    i used a wire wheel on a drill to get loose stuff off and clean rust. then i use denatured alcohol mixed with some water like 2/3 alcohol 1/3rd water in a spray bottle and wipe it with a rag.

          finished rubber coating so i can put the subframe in. i hate the rubber coat it sticks to everything and it smells very bad.

                        That painted subframe and undercoating looks real good! I think I would have kept the diff cover silver but it looks great nonetheless

                            paint it white, that's the thing around here.
