I'm hoping!
I've been trying to clean up my axles for paint. There is undercoat on them that really sux to take off. I scrap what I can, give it a good coat of aircraft stripper, scrub with a wire brush, then pressure wash. It works but is slow going.

I've been bad, I've been neglecting my project the past couple of weeks. I'm just about ready to paint my axles and leafs.

I've got most of my small brackets and pieces blasted, primed, and painted. I'm going to have to make a few tools to press out the old rubber bushings from the leaf springs. Picked up some new urathanes.
Also back tracking a bit, I'm pulling the Comp 255deh out in favor for a hotter Isky cam. I'm going to have to swap valve springs also. This cam should give me a "noticable" idle and flatten out the torque. So it won't make the peak 475 ft/lbs torque of the Comp cam, but will make over 400ft/lbs up to 4500 rpm.

Yea, even in at work I burn out old spring bushings. Far faster and easyer.
