Thanks very much Chris. I think the powder coat makes it look much more professional and complete than leaving it raw.

Thanks for the reward Rob. Those quality videos are always too short!

Powdercoat turned out pretty sweet!

Would bead blasting the aluminum give a similar effect? I remember what your KW axles looked like.

I see now how your tailgate lock works for a positive release. Genius

Horizontal ribs have always been my preference too Pete, that's what's common around here too.

Yeah I will probably take the pipes off with the first bucket of dirt!

I think the powder coat looks great although it looks more 70's disco in person. Next time I will choose a less metallic color. I think bead blasting will just make them look chalky and attract stains. Should I take yours in before they go in the mail?

The gate release works good in theory but not as good in reality. It is hard to get the geometry right with my current setup.

Big thanks to everybody for commenting!
