Prepping an 8 3/4 Rear End...

MuuMuu101,

I picked up an axle as well. I put a while wheel on a HF "black" grinder and wire wheeled the crap out of it. It was so greasy and dirty that I got that gunk on the garage floor. Woops!

Anyway, I found a place in Lynwood that does powder coating and sandblasting. I'm thinking of having it blasted. They quoted me $50.00 bucks. There's this other place in Downey that quoted $80.00 bucks.

Like yours, mine also as a 489 case with 2.76 gears. I believe it came off a '69 Coronet. I'm in the same boat as trying to figure out what to do after that. I want to do the same thing, just throw it in the car and drive it!
