    Hey folks.
    New gal here. Well actually, I finally got myself a tag. I’ve been haunting this spot since November of 2020.
    I just got my 02 undercoated. This is a maiden voyage for me.
    it seems like they covered up the entire under of my carriage and masked the exhaust. My question/statement is: my driving seems weird since I got it back.
    could it be that the oil is effecting moving parts in my front and rear axles, joints, links/bushings/center bearing and the rest?
    Disclaimer: I’m awaiting cash flow to replace a broken leaf spring on the right and noticed about three weeks ago that I have a blown shock on the rear left.
    Is there anyone out there with an image of a good undercoat job?

    Welcome!

    Do you know what product they applied?

    Sometimes people spray only the frame, but often add the underbody, the heavy metal parts like rear axles, linkages, fuel tank guard, front guards, control arms, etc., etc. The things that should not be sprayed are fuel tank, steering rack, all exhaust components, transmission, or anything engine related, nothing on brake components, etc.

    I'll try to post up a couple images. What seems weird in the ride now?
