I've read about POR15 for under the truck, but not to much on the rear axle and diff. I've removed 46 years of grease of grime and the control arms, trcking arm, springs, shocks and mounting plates...ready to re-assemble after blasting and power coating. I plan to use POR15 on those under parts I could not remove. The axle is different and not referenced for that application. Appreciate any advice. Not an off-frame repair.

Thanks

I blasted my chassis and rearend and used POR15 on it. It works good. I will say, if there is any grease anywhere on the axle the POR15 will not stick so be sure its really really clean. It makes the rear end look nice and the stuff is tough as nails!

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.

A red rear end? Hope I don't have to follow you on a trip. I have a weak stomach.

Aw that was a little harsh. I was just kidding you.
