Moving on to the axel tubes.

these things are nasty and the cleaning process really sux. this is the one time I wish I had one of those little blasting cabinets.
Here is what I am starting with and this is after about an hours worth of pressure washing.

You will notice where I hacked off the shock mounts when it was still attached to the car. You cant really clean the cuts up when everything is in the way.

So I started by cleaning the cuts up.
