    I'm planning on wire brushing and repainting a couple of driveshafts I received for my crawlbox project, anyone have any paint suggestions?

    Thanks!

    Harbor freight bedliner paint. It's tough, but not thick like other bedliner paints.

    do y'all think I should remove the u joints for sanding and painting? Or will it not matter?

    I've never removed/installed u joints before, so I'm a bit of a noob there.

    Thanks!
