powder coating

[Brock]

So, anyone thinking about powder coating the back cast rear suspension parts, or more??

I wanna do mine in flat black, kinda black it all out.

Anyone do this yet and have pics?

I have been thinking of it. Seen these photos of ones that have been done.

Wow!!!

Nice!!!

I wonder if it was done by not pulling anything apart??

IMO that shuuld have been an option for snowcheck just like the suspension rails.

If it's powder coated it would have been disassembled, yep. It sure does look good!!



Agreed!

I was asking cause guy's were saying you don't have to disassemble.
for me personally, I would disassemble

I guess I shouldn't have assumed ... sorry about that. I just know from past experience, and having a family member who previously owned a powder coating business ... everything is disassembled so it can go through the cleaning process before it's coated and baked. Holes are plugged so as not to change the diameter for bolts, nuts, etc. after the coating is complete. If someone did it without taking it apart, maybe there's some newer technology out there that allows it.

All good ... bottom line is, it sure looks great & I am hoping to get it done!

all good my friend.

powder coating while on sled would be the cheesy way.

I might do my front a arms too. Take all the red out,an all black theme and remove my stickers and replace with steath look stickers like the black copp cars.

I bought a 2015 Indy 600 for a backup sled. I am thinking of having the rear seat brace and the bag rack I bought powder coated. So how about we give props to powder coater's that have been used in the past with good results and decent pricing. Maybe add some Powder Coater names, business in this thread?

Those parts look awesome! Powdercoating is addictive! Once you start, there really is no place to quit.

Another durable option would be to have the parts anodized, however; probably not as economical.

SQ coating out of Horicon Wi. did mine.
I have to figure out how to add pics.

Anyone take the side pieces off the running boards for powder coating?Are these riveted on? I took mine off on my nytro. PITA but looks awesome when done.

Sweet ! Rails , skid and all nice. I wish my rails were black.

 

[bunner47]

Yeah they look unfinished with the raw aluminum, and the sled is very easy to take apart

I powder coated my buddies rear on his sba. He brought it to me in pieces, but we did ral 9005 high gloss black . I'll see if I can get a pic of it assembled
