@522drwagon Thanks for the advice Pete.
Pete, on your suspension/chassis welding for the GMC truck, what sort of shielding gas do you use for your mig welder, Argon-Co2 mix, a tri-mix or pure argon?
Cheers James

@jamesinengland1 If it's an aluminum caliper I would either have them powdercoated or use an acetone self etching type primer that will have a good bite to it, so it will grip in to the aluminum and then paint with a high quality urathane single stage paint so if touch up was necassary you wouldn't have to worry about clearcoat.

1961 GMC truck suspension - great job Pete, what kind of paint do you use on the chassis and brake caliper (the black stuff)? Can you recommend any good paint for brake calipers? If they were a cast aluminium alloy would you prime them first or would you use a direct paint? Thanks James

should have used a half of pipe... would have saved some of that welding if you had marked it ad cut it with that plasma...looked nicer also

Pete thats a much better fit and the rake on the truck looks great, Im a retired (retarded) mechanic and there is NO WAY I would attempt fitting that X member. Your right get a pro to do the things you think you can do. It always works out cheaper in the end and it will be safe and youll be happy.
