Nice!  THose should hold up.  Nice Armor All job, she looks real good.

thanks hump,do they still make armor all? I use SC1, works great and last a long time. it would be great for all the mud you guys get into out there. we cover the sprint car in it and the dirt wont stick

I've seen and heard of that SC1 but never tried it.  May have to check it out.  Armor all doesn't seem to be as good as it was when I was a kid.  Seems watered down now.

I'll be working on a gusset kit for the factory spindles soon if anyone is interested. Definitely not as cool as the Cog's but will help for a fraction of the cost. welding procedure will need to be right if you try to handle the job yourself but I think they will work well.

I would be hesitant on your end, to offer a "do it yourself" kit...too much liability !  Welding cast is a pita...and...on a steering part , ya damned sure want it to be done correctly.

SC1 works great, but you have to make sure the surface is clean or it will encase the dirt, too.
also, if it's still wet when you ride, the dust will stick to it.
i've gone through half a case this year and at $7 + a can, it gets expensive

Where can you buy SC1 at ?

i think flimmy could get it for you if you want to buy from a forum member

if you spray some on your seat you'll slide all over the place.

I been hearing lately to try eagle one chrome wheel cleaner( the one in the grey bottle). Has no acids in it and it won't mess up the bolts and other things on the motor and stuff. Tire foam works great under the machine and sc1 is great on plastic and not vinyl. If your plastics are vinyl wrapped, just wax them.

Also, sc1 works good in your cage too!!!!

Dude, looks way good

Here is a little more progress after work

Lookin good JP.  What kind of ball joints are those?  Are they factory style or something else?  Looks like a strong setup.

Looks good but what are you using the paper towels for. Lol

Clean set up for sure

thanks guys, paper towels are just in case I find a spec of dirt or grease...lol....I get my SC1 from amazon for $6 bucks a can, in the local shops they want 9-10. I also use it on my hard plactics on my truck, last long and bugs dont stick
