    Under carriage done Econo_13

    I have the under carriage cleaned and repainted, I used the Chassis Saver as it seemed a little easier then the PORS 15. Now I can start on the top side of the bed.

    That looks really Great Stanyon! I can't wait to get to that point on mine. Not only does it help preserve the van, it just cleans it up so nice!!!

    Looks quite nice. Did you use something else to clean up the leaf springs, or were those coated too ?

    I used a 3/8 inch plug electric drill and a Makita small angle grinder with wire brushes to clean off the dirt and loose rust. Ruined the 3/8 drill in the process by putting to much pressure on the wheel when scrubbing the parts. Next time I will just rely on the Makita.
