Re: Preping frame for Powdercoat
One reason for taking out the rivets would be to get to trapped rust under the frame parts (spring hangers, shock mounts etc..) It's a lot of work but worth it in the end. I took out about half of mine, wish I did them all now.
Make sure you take 100 measurements so that you can get it square again when you put it back together. I purchased all of my grade 8 hardware from Tractor Supply, they sell it in bulk...
Also wouldn't hurt to degrease any heavy spots so the sandblaster won't take as long (time=$$)...
